Re: Doesn't work for drawball.com

Flash runs as a Java Applet or an ActiveX control / Netscape plug in - depending on your browser.

Please understand that these things are NOT running within the true confines of the browser; they run in their own virtual machines, and have direct access to some local system functions and the network stack.

Torpark will absolutely anonymize all HTTP browsing. However, Flash, Java, ActiveX, and other such things are really equivalent to running a separate program on your system - they're just set in the browser's interface (and can be accessed by the browser.)

Torpark anonymizes HTTP traffic sent through browser posts and requests only. As another poster said (and I clarified), you must turn off Java, plug-ins, and anything like ActiveX to have any real anonymity guarantees.
