I'm participating in some programming competitions lately + I have important things to do. So basically, this needs some time to be sorted out. Also, this project means turning the application to open source which needs a public license before publishing. |

quick question that might to be worth opening a thread for it:
what's the best programming language (or maybe there's a software that already does that?) to do the following: - download a bunch of zipped files from a secure ftp connetion - unzip the files - save the resulting files in various directories on my system (depending on their name, etc...) [windows environment] doesn't have to be a marvel of object oriented, scalable programming. smthing quick & dirty to just do this repetitive task (that i have to do every morning :P) thx |

You can also create a batch script and do this via CURL.
Accessing the ftp server: curl ftp://HOST_NAME --user usr:pwd Downloading a file from the server: curl ftp://HOST_NAME/FOLDER/FILE.zip --user myname:mypassword -o DOWNLOADED_FILE_NAME.zip Uploading a file: curl -T FILE.zip ftp://HOST_NAME/FOLDER/ --user usr:pwd Listing files in sub directories curl ftp://HOST_NAME/FOLDER/ --user usr:pwd Listing directories, hiding curl progress bar and using grep to filter curl ftp://HOST_NAME --user usr:pwd -s | grep ^d |

what do you think of this TOR project: http://www.torproject.org ?
every heard of it? would it significantly slow down the connection? are there more known applications that use the same principle? any potential problems with it? |

I use it sometimes in the university to bypass some silly restrictions.
Yes it would slow down the connection because your HTTP request will pass through many servers to reach the final server destination (same is the reply that is on its way to your computer). While using TOR, your IP will be changed each amount of time because the network relay path will be changed. This dynamic change will keep you *anonymous on the internet. It is all about the HTTP tunneling. Of course there are other free applications that use this, like ultra-surf and there are some paid VPN (virtual private network) services for this purpose. Problems that may arise: In normal cases, you won't face any problem other than slowness. Other than that, there are some websites that base their cookies on IP address (to protect their users against cookie theft), so you will lose your session and get logged out when your IP address on TOR change (These websites are not very common). *There are some theoretical attacks based on Javascript (similar to the man_in_the_middle_attack concept) that can reveal your identity when you are using TOR. The attacker must have a TOR server.
