[Noob Tut] Using the Onion (Skype, Browsers, etc) - spooky hacker - Apr 22, 2016
"The Tor network is a group of volunteer-operated servers that allows people to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. Tor's users employ this network by connecting through a series of virtual tunnels rather than making a direct connection, thus allowing both organizations and individuals to share information over public networks without compromising their privacy. Along the same line, Tor is an effective censorship circumvention tool, allowing its users to reach otherwise blocked destinations or content. Tor can also be used as a building block for software developers to create new communication tools with built-in privacy features." - Tor
Basically this is a mini tutorial on using Tor to be a little more anon. Remember that Tor is not fully anonymous and using Tor for illegal activites will get you caught easily. Also you wont be able to access HF, Netflix and all those anti proxy sites due to Tor being blocked.
-=+=- Setting up Tor -=+=-
Firstly, head over to https://www.torproject.org/download/download and locate your operating system. Click your OS and download the Expert Bundle.
Lastly, move your Tor .zip file to wherever you would like and open it up, then click the Tor file located inside the .zip and run the tor.exe and you're gucci.
Now that you have Tor up and running we want to route most of our applications through it. For this tutorial I'll simply use Skype and Firefox as an example.
-=+=- Routing Skype -=+=-
Open up Skype and head to Tools>Options>Advanced>Connection. Now that you're there you want to set the port type to SOCKS5 and input 127.0.0.1 into the Host label and 9050 into the port (Tor runs through port 9050). Also, input 9050 into the "Use port__ for incoming connections". Your settings should look like this:

* You might want to restart Skype for Tor to take effect.
-=+=- Routing FireFox -=+=-
Open up FireFox and head to Options>Advanced>Connection now click Settings and Check the Manual Proxy Configuration box. Now, input 127.0.0.1 into the SOCKS Host label and 9050 for the port. Lastly, check Socks_v5 below the IP, now click Ok and you should have a slower connection 🤗 ot: you should now be protected by the Onion. It should look like this: https://gyazo.com/73bd89f50c75f7672b0ab16fdf5462be
Anyways, catch you on the flip side. 🤝

Great tutorial ! Now cant you just use a a VPN to get the same anonymity? Because i noticed that when connecting to my OpenVPN VPN server. That skype has to reconnect. So this means that skype is going thru the VPN i assume.

Yes, OpenVpn is pptp. So it would tunnel your whole computer.
