UltraSurf

It’s a well-known fact that the Internet is really not the safest place out there. More than this, you don’t always have access to particular pages because of region limitations. However, this can be bypassed by also hiding your Internet identity, and UltraSurf is the type of application which can handle this type of task.

One of the main advantages here is that the application doesn’t require installation to work, so it’s good to go from the moment download is done. The set of features is found in a compact, yet intuitive interface which activates proxy connection right from the start. You can choose a web browse method, as well as the preferred portal based on speed percentage.

Note, however, that the application is designed to work hand-in-hand with Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. It doesn’t integrate as a browser extension, but corresponding browser functions are used to ensure stealthy browsing. For instance, surfing the web via Chrome does so in an Incognito window.

The options panel lets you configure several application parameters. Thus, you can enable hotkey commands, disable proxy, delete cookies and history on exit, and define the local listening port. In case you don’t want to rely on the program’s proxy configuration, you can opt for auto-detection or manual configuration through input of host and port.

You’re able to choose from the top three portal suggestions, with status indicated as colored dial, as well as speed percentage. You can enable the UltraShare feature which allows connections to be funneled through your computer, without actually affecting it or putting it at risk. The main window holds buttons to quickly launch an Internet Explorer or Google Chrome instance for secure navigation.

Bottom line is that it’s highly recommended to stay safe over the web. In this regard, UltraSurf offers a neat set of tools which are mostly automatically configured and rely on a secure proxy connection to use with Internet Explorer or Google Chrome.
