  1. Thanks for the help! I'll try your advice. I'm using Windows 7
  2. Hi, I've posted in several places for help including at http://forum.i2p2.de/viewtopic.php?t=6121 but don't know how to a simple eepsite. Even most I2P developer sponsored sites are unreachable. Can someone just type a list of step by step instructions for accessing a random eepsite like say, http://cheech-wizard.i2p. PLEASE DON'T REFER ME TO ANOTHER SITE. I'VE TRIED AND THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE TOO COMPLICATED. Sorry to bother you like this but I've been trying to browse eepsites for a few months without much success. Thanks for any help.
  3. O MY GOD! O MY GOD! O MY GOD! It's finally working! I can visit .onion sites and am posting using Tor right now in Firefox! I installed the non-portable version on my machine and set the clock forward about one hour (the message log told me to) though I now have the incorrect time. I don't understand why that should work. But whatever, at least it works! Thanks so much for the help! I was about to find someone online to pay in bitcoins if he offered a solution; I was so desperate after months of this nonsense. Have a good one!
  4. I haven't tried doing the permanent installation on this machine yet but these are the results so far from opening from a usb. I can access Tor but not the .onion sites. The Tor check page that opens up confirms this. So I can access the Internet and ports are not blocked. I just tried running the Tor Bundle from a usb on this machine but have the same problems. I can't access core.onion, Tor Dir, Duck Duck Go, or any other .onion sites on this machine. Here's a message log: Only differences I can find between this machine and the other one: OS: One that works is XP SP 3. This machine is a fully updated Windows 7 computer. Connection Strength: One that works is 56 mbs. This one is 36 mbs but still has "good" signal strenth according to the network properties. Connection Method: Working one is desktop and uses usb wireless adapter. This machine is a laptop with built in wireless connecting abilities. If it makes any difference, I can access Freenet just fine on his computer.
  5. I'll try that but so far, I know that the websites, router, home network, and browser bundle are not the problem. I was able to access .onion sites on someone else's XP computer on the home network by running the Tor portable bundle from a USB. However, I need to be able to access those sites on this computer. I'll try your suggestion and tell you what happens.
  6. Thanks so much for the help! I installed the portable browser version located here: https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en It comes with the Aurora browser, though I've also tried opening the portable Firefox which is inside the Tor bundle folder with the same results.
  7. Thanks for the reply! I can't access that url. None of the boxes are checked under "Network" in the Vidalia control panel. Advanced settings: These are the settings in the Tor configuration file: # This file was generated by Tor; if you edit it, comments will not be preserved # The old torrc file was renamed to torrc.orig.1 or similar, and Tor will ignore it AvoidDiskWrites 1 ControlPort 9051 DataDirectory .\Data\Tor GeoIPFile .\Data\Tor\geoip Log notice stdout SocksListenAddress 127.0.0.1 These are my computer system settings: Tech Support Guy System Info Utility version 1.0.0.1 OS Version: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium , Service Pack 1, 64 bit Processor: Intel® Core i3-2310M CPU @ 2.10GHz, Intel64 Family 6 Model 42 Stepping 7 Processor Count: 4 RAM: 4009 Mb Graphics Card: Intel® HD Graphics Family, 1812 Mb Hard Drives: C: Total - 236543 MB, Free - 164783 MB; D: Total - 354129 MB, Free - 354027 MB; Motherboard: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD., RV420/RV520/RV720/E3530/S3530/E3420/E3520, FAB1, 123490EN400015 Antivirus: Microsoft Security Essentials, Updated and Enabled
  8. Tor check web page and status box says I’m connected to Tor. I can access the regular Internet on Tor. I’m using the latest stable Tor bundle to access the Tor network. I can’t access any .onion sites despite having: 1. Reinstalled Tor several times 2. “Excellent” signal strength 3. Trying to access TorDir, Core.onion, Hidden Wiki, Duck Duck Go, and various other hidden services. 4. Switched identities uncountable times 5. Checking the computer clock time 6. Used Tor inside a virtual machine 7. Turning my computer on and off 8. Reloaded the pages literally hundreds of times. I’ve visited .onion sites inside an XP virtual machine and know that most of the sites I’m trying to reach are online (e.g., Hidden Wiki) and can access the Tor network, but no .onion sites-----------So I KNOW something’s wrong. Every time I try to connect to an .onion site, the connection times out, but again, I KNOW something’s wrong and am at my wit’s end. I haven’t accessed a single .onion site once in the last few months. So someone please help me if you can. I would really appreciate it.
