My bags of tricks.
![](http://www.dogsinthenews.com/issues/0105/pictures/tricks.gif)
Anonymouse: Anonymous browsing using a "proxy" server which is sort of like a relay.
Babelfish: Online translation. Alas Latin is not included!
Bugmenot: Allows you to read those newspapers that ask you to subscribe and offer all sorts of spam opportunities.
Bandwidth Test: Tests your connection speed. Usually proves your ISP to be a liar.
Guardster: Another anonymous surfing site.
Make a shorter link: Good for shortening big long links when you subscribe to usenet, mailing lists and other forums. Long links tend to get cut and unusable when e-mailing.
Privacy analysis: I occasionally use this to remind myself of what a firewall doesn't do.
Tiny URL: Same as the make-a-shorter link above.
Shields Up:Firewall and port scanning tester.
Traceroute: Allows you to do backward seaches on DNS entries etc.
Whois: Whois search that seems to be the quickest, easiest and most reliable. No pop-ups, registration and other annoyances.
XE Com: Currency converter. Useful in the shrinking global village
