    Googel already has our info, I don't do anything stupid on the net and I already blocked most of the telemarketers. No need to be paranoid now.

    Here is an other unanonymizer site. The site claims to test the anonymity through Java TCP, Java UDP, SilverLight, Adobe Flash Playser and and Windows Media Player. Hope that it will replace the powerful (but now offline) unanonymizer engine decloak.net.

    Somewhere on SBI I read one day a way to fake the number of fonts to zero. Does someone remember the method ???

    Which one of the tests in this thread checked the number of fonts? If you have a link to that I'll probably remember what the method was.

    The test site is hxxp://ip-check.info/

    But I have remember the method:

    On Windows go to %Windir%\System32\Macromed\Flash In this directory, open (or create) a text file named mms.cfg . Open this file with your text editor, and write the following line: DisableDeviceFontEnumeration=1 Save, close, and then perform the Jondonym test, javascript enabled: The test will reveal you have only 0 fonts.

    In the same file, you can set DisableSockets to 1. If I understand well, this setting will prevent the possibility of flash to connect to websites without using the proxy of the browser.

    More info here

    Yes and yes. I thought you might be referring to the @font-face CSS attribute (which NoScript deals with beautifully, and disabling WebFonts in Opera also fixes). Forcing Firefox to use your specified fonts only to render documents and leaving the default choices passes the test too, but sites won't look as intended.

    mms.cfg is a pretty unknown but useful resource to control Flash behavior, mine looks like this:

    Code:
    AutoUpdateDisable=1
    #DisableSockets=1
    SilentAutoUpdateEnable=0
    DisableDeviceFontEnumeration=1
    OverrideGPUValidation=1
    ProtectedMode=0
    AVHardwareDisable=1
    Grooveshark needs sockets to play music, so I had to comment that line out. Took me a pretty long time to find out why it kept saying I had a Flash blocker running when I whitelisted everything for that site...

    Apart from Grooveshark, could you summarily explain your choices ?

    I don't like updates behind my back, nor nags to get the latest version. This turns both off.

    DisableDeviceFontEnumeration=1

    Anti-font profiling.

    OverrideGPUValidation=1

    Flash (and many other programs) keeps a list of video card models and driver versions that have been verified to work correctly with regards to hardware acceleration. If you have a very new card, driver or both, or just hardware it doesn't recognize, it'll say "no" and turn GFX acceleration off even if you're capable of using it. This setting overrides the check and always returns "yes". This helps prevent lag with video playback and games on non-recognized cards, unless you have integrated or very low-end hardware.

    ProtectedMode=0

    This creates a separate process for each instance of the plugin to prevent crashes from taking down the whole browser. I applied it when I was using Firefox, because plugin-container already did the exact same job and this protected mode prevented YouTube from working. Now I'm on Opera, I might actually need to turn it on...

    AVHardwareDisable=1

    Disables access to microphones and webcams, a feature completely unnecessary for me.

    A very informative thread. There is another website that does some kind of test as well. I will edit this post when I find it.
