  * Free anonymising browser debuts *

Cyber rights hacking group creates browser that makes it possible to 
surf the net anonymously.

Web users worried about privacy can now use a modified version of 
Firefox that lets them browse the net anonymously.

The Torpark browser has been created by a hacking group and uses 
technology backed by digital rights group the Electronic Frontier 
Foundation.

Torpark uses its own network of net routers to anonymise the traffic 
people generate when they browse the web.

The browser can be put on a flash memory stick so users can turn any 
PC into an anonymous terminal.
