Anchorfree Part 2

Realized my post on the Anchorfree utility wasn't complete.  This software will really help you boost your broadband performance on Streamyx.

 

At Anchorfree's site, download Hostpot Shield.

 

There will be ads coming out while you surf.  To block them, if you use Firefox 2 or newer, download Firefox's add-on: Adblock Plus.  If you are still using Internet Explorer (IE), I recommend you swith to Firefox immediately for faster surfing experience.  Even if you don't want to use Hotspot Shield, I highly recommend you use Adblock Plus to remove ads.

After installing the add-on, go to the Adblock Plus' options.  At the menu bar, click Filters > Add Filter Subscribtion.  Select "EasyList + EasyElement (USA)", and click the Subscribe button.  Let it download the list of filters from the target website.  After completion, you will see most of the Anchorfree ads removed while surfing.

 

I was told that all those using Celcom Broadband share the same IP.  And they don't have control over the port-forwarding used in bit torrent clients.  One user told me that this Hotspot Shield by Anchorfree will somehow fix this problem, and now he can download files using BT.

I've got something to tell you...

Watched Disaster Movie (IMDB) (Y! Movies) recently.  The only thing good about it is the ending song, which is sort of done in the same manner as in Meet The Spartans.

Watch the clip on YouTube here.

It is actually a spoof/parody of Sarah Silverman's I'm F*cking Matt Damon. It's funny how the movie star is willing to be in the clip

There's some history between Matt Damon, Sarah Silverman and Jimmy Kimmel.  As Sarah Silverman (actress, comedienne) mentioned in the clip, she has been dating Jimmy (a talk show host) for 5 years, and they broke up.  To get some sorta revenge against Jimmy, she used Matt Damon.

Jimmy Kimmel always used Matt Damon as a joke in his talk shows.  Jimmy ends his shows with "Apologies to Matt Damon, but we ran out of time," even though the actor was never scheduled to come on the show.  When Damon finally appeared as a guest, Damon sat down, only to have the host cut him off and end the show. As planned, the actor unleashed a flurry of curse words on Kimmel and proceeded to storm off the set.  Read more about it here and watch a clip from YouTube here.

By the way, the song "I'm F*ing Matt Damon" reminds me of Euro Trip's "Scotty Doesn't Know".  Watch that song clip here.  Matt Damon appears as a punk skinhead rocker in that movie, singing that song about him f*ing Scotty's gf, Fiona.  Haha.

Anchorfree

Lately TMNut are giving lotsa problems to the StimiX users.  I can't even surf the net smoothly, even without any downloading and P2P programs.  I'm sure lotsa Malaysians are facing this problem as well, not only in Penang.

I think it's due to the stupid routing algorithm and throttling of the bandwidth done by StimX.  If you noticed, some sites are very fast.  Most likely these sites are in the Asian region.  But sites like Facebook, Friendster are crawling as slow as watching trees grow!  Maybe even slower if you're waiting for a download to complete, because it WON'T, as the connection will be dropped.  Trees will still grow.

So, what can you do?  Go download and install Anchorfree.  It's a free VPN (Virtual Private Network).  Since most VPNs require fees, this free stuff comes with a catch.  Some ads will pop up on your Internet browser, but I will gladly allow them if I can surf the net without any problems.  One tip though: You need not install the browser toolbar.

This is not a paid post.  I want all StimX users to fully utilize their bandwidth.  If we could, I'd wanna sue StimX for overselling their limited bandwidth.
