Q&A: Will UltraSurf influence my firewall protection?

Here is an interesting question I have received yesterday on the Ask Us page:

Q: I want to surf anonymously from my home computer. I live in The Netherlands, so do not have a government firewall to contend with. I just do not want my ISP or the likes of Google to see which sites I visit.

I have Comodo firewall installed.

Can I use UltraSurf (from ultrareach.com), or will it influence my firewall protection against malware negatively?

A: Is hiding my IP address affecting the firewall protection? The answer is simple: NO.

UtraSurf, as other hide ip products, offers proxies that act as intermediate between you and the site you visit. The firewall is not bypassed in any way by using such software. So you can continue using UltraSurf without worrying about malware.

    China firewall is lame, use water to put out the fire of the wall but how do you get over the wall? – use Freedur.com to bypass it. You can bypass China Great Firewall and access youtube, facebook, blogger and all other sites which are blocked.
