 Awesome. Welcome to another 12pm tutorial. This tutorial will show you how to download and use PUF, a circumvention tool that connects you to the internet through a proxy server. By connecting you to the internet through a proxy server, PUF attempts to give you access to information that may not be available in your area, making it a great tool for those people who are stuck behind firewalls or other forms of internet filtering. Now that you know how PUF works, I'm going to show you how to use the software. First, open up a web browser and go to www.erite.net. At this point, I would normally tell you to take a look around the website, but there isn't much here, so let's just keep going. There are two versions of PUF to download, the commercial version and the free version. We're going to download the free version, so go ahead and click the link for the free version and save it to your computer. Once the file finishes downloading, you can close your browser and then go find the file. Opening the PUF file requires that your operating system can open archived files. If yours doesn't automatically open this file, go to www.7zip.com and download 7zip, which will be able to open the file for you. Once you have extracted the files, double click on this file here in order to start the installation process. Click Next. Choose where you want to install the program and then click Next. Click Next again. Go ahead and check this box if you want to create a desktop icon and then click Next. Read through the information here and click Install. Feel free to run PUF after the installation is done. I'm going to run it from the desktop. Double click the PUF icon in order to start the program. Most of these buttons should be pretty self-explanatory, so take a look over here at the black screens. These black screens mean that we aren't connected to the internet through PUF. Go ahead and click Connect. When both screens turn blue, you have successfully connected to the PUF service. Down here are two options for opening up internet explorer browsers. IE via proxy is a secure browser that connects to the internet through PUF. IE local is a non-secure browser that does not connect to the internet through PUF. If you are looking to access information that is regularly filtered in your area, you'll want to click IE via proxy. Go ahead and do that now. You should automatically be redirected to a page that shows the IP address that people will see while you are using PUF. How do I know that's not my actual IP address? I'll open up a rub browser that isn't using the PUF service, like so, and go to www.checkip.org. Those numbers look different to me, so that tells me that PUF must be working. In order to shut the service off, just click Close or Disconnect. Now you know how to use PUF.
