Post if you want the code and I will send it

Heya guys I was bored and remembered a tool that ComSec posted so I decided to make my own version ....

Here it is, its very short code just to use the google translate servers as a proxy. Instead of opening up internet explorer it uses its own browser. I dont really know why I made this but perhaps one day it will come in useful.

Before anyone says I stole ComSecs code may I point out that he (to my knowledge) never released the code.

nice work dude .
can u pm me the code ? that would be cool.
thanks in advance

yours

@Chris

your correct i never released any code to my tool.. because it was just a quick tool for the thread

if you want to go further with it... be my guest

cheers chris

[aapje]

nice tool chris

[Chris]

Cheer guys, I kinda hit a dead end. I cant think of any more features?

There is one but I think it would be impossible:

Often URLs are scanned for key words e.g. if I was to type in photogaph-mayhem.com (just made it up) and the word photograph was beened then it would be seen in the URL behind the google bit. Is it possible to encode the URL to make this not happen? I thought about a simple character shift but that would require a server to be set up.

like a = b
b = c
c = d
etc

e.g.

client --- (encoded) ---> Server ---(decoded)---> google ----> web page

Any thoughts on whether I should do this? Would anyone use it??

Any other ideas?

[usch]

u could include a host lookup feature that u dont give the url, but the iP to use with the google proxy.
i think this would bypass the keyword scanners

so long

Thats a very good point usch how could I get the IP without pinging the server (no access to dos at all (or any commandline apps ).

Heres the function im working on for character shifting.

Function shifter(ByVal shifter As String)
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "j", "a")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "k", "b")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "l", "c")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "m", "d")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "n", "e")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "o", "f")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "p", "g")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "q", "h")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "r", "i")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "z", "j")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "y", "k")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "x", "l")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "w", "m")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "v", "n")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "u", "o")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "t", "p")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "s", "q")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "1", "r")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "2", "s")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "3", "t")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "4", "u")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "5", "v")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "6", "w")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "7", "x")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "8", "y")
shifter = SF_replace(shifter, "9", "z")
End Function

Got a module of the web:

Function SF_replace(ByVal Haystack As String, ByVal Needle As String, ByVal NewNeedle As String) As String
'replace first occurence of needle in haystack with newneedle
'if needle is empty or not found, haystack is returned
'if needle is equal to haystack, newneedle is returned
'if needle is equal to newneedle, haystack is returned
'SF_replace(" This is my string ","my","your") returns " This is your string "
Dim i As Long
If SF_isNothing(Needle) Then
SF_replace = Haystack
Else
If StrComp(Needle, NewNeedle, vbBinaryCompare) = 0 Then
SF_replace = Haystack
Else
i = InStr(1, Haystack, Needle, vbBinaryCompare)
If i = 0 Then
SF_replace = Haystack
Else
SF_replace = SF_splitLeft(Haystack, Needle) & NewNeedle & SF_splitRight(Haystack, Needle)
End If
End If
End If
End Function

All that just to get an IP !!!!

[Gotisch]

This proxy doesnt provide any anomymous access, right?

its just there to bypass the url/web/filters of the router/webcache.?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

it's for both!

the clue is that you use the google translation page to view the page, so google.* is your hostname that the server sees. try it with http://www.whatismyip.com

[Terminal]

But sometimes one server host many websites (like freehosts) but they filter request with incoming subdomain name or domain name. In that case http://ipaddress wont work

[Chris]

Ok cheers vickie, just changed it so people can decide whether to use the IP or the hostname using a checkbox. Is there anyway at all to encode the URL but still let the server see what your after?

often thing like /forums are banned words so even if you use the ip you still have to have

0.0.0.0/forums

Heres the version with IP support (its still a bit dodgy (any and all help appreciated)).
