OperaTor - Opera + Tor. Surf anonymously
- OperaTor
OperaTor is a portable software bundle which allows you to browse the web anonymously. It combines the power of the Opera Browser, Tor and Polipo.
With OperaTor no data will be stored at the computer you plugged your portable memory into.
Changes in the current release
- Opera 10.10
- Tor 0.2.1.21

Download OperaTor 3.5
OperaTor weights 10 MB and is Windows only. After the download is finished:
- check its MD5 checksum:
7a288e64811219b0ccc081398632288f *OperaTor-3.5.zip - extract the archive to the location of your choice
- launch the
OperaTor.exefile to start all the necessary applications
Please do not link directly to the files. Link to this page instead.
Important
The only protocols which OperaTor anonymizes are HTTP and HTTPS, thus if you want to stay anonymous you should avoid using other Opera features (e.g. Java, JavaScript, Bittorrent, integrated e-mail and IRC clients).
OperaTor comes with absolutely no warranty. It is the user's responsibility to test whether the connection is secure. Users should keep in mind that OperaTor relies on Tor (The Onion Router) and Polipo and any security questions should be directed to their developers.
Troubleshooting and bugs
If you seek support or want to report a bug, please use the Troubleshooting

How do I read the answers to comments?
I have been reading some of the comments and found that I would like to read the answers to a few of them but, I don't know where to goto read them. Any help would be nice.
If there is no reply
If there is no reply immediately below the comment, then simply noone has replied.
AutoUpdate
As you probably know, Opera 10 now has Auto Update. In About:Config there is a configurable field to set the update server it uses.. Maybe it'd be a nice addition to make OperaTor update itself? Without having to always come here for it :P
OperaTor 3.4
OperaTor 3.4 http://www.ddown.org/…perator-3-4/
Will there be upgrade?
I'd like to ask, if there is any progress in this project. There is already
new TOR version → Tor 0.2.1.19
new Opera → 9.64 or 10 (I still prefer 9.64)
and I'd like to ask, if there could be used Opera Portable instead of ordinary Opera. Portable has some changes like Flash blocker and Graphics blocker which I find very good.
Also is there a possibility to implement I2P here?
Thanks in advance for answer.
Which download link should I use ?
It appears there are two downloads…
OperaTor 3.3 – PBwiki (http://operator.pbwiki.com/…aTor-3.3.zip)
OperaTor 3.3 – My Opera (http://files.myopera.com/…aTor-3.3.zip)
What are the differences, advantages and disadvantages, of the two downloads ? How do I know which one I should use ? Is it the same file at different download locations ? No info seems to be given unless I overlooked it somehow.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks John
Which download should I use
OK, I see where it was posted that they are both the same file. They should just put the word Mirror next to one of the downloads.
Thanks John
OPERA SECURITY HOLE?
What about the security hole in Opera? Run OperaTOR and look at: http://3639556963 That should take you to the proxy country – it takes you straight home!!
