To get started using the NeoTunnel™ tunneling proxy service to surf the web securely and anonymously on a Microsoft Windows based PC using the Internet Explorer browser, follow these steps:

1. Download the NeoTunnel support software installer by clicking here. Save the file to the Desktop.

2. Double-click on the "InstallNeoTunnel" icon on the Desktop.

3. In the installer window, click Install.

4. After the installation is complete, on the next screen click Close.

5. From the Windows Start menu, select Programs -> NeoTunnel -> Install Service

6. From the Windows Start menu, select Programs -> NeoTunnel -> Start Service

7. Configure IE to use the proxy as follows:
   • Select Tools -> Internet Options from the main menu.

   • On the "Internet Options" window, click on the "Connections" tab.

   • Click "LAN Settings".

   • Enable the check-box for "Use a proxy server for a LAN".

   • In the "Address" field, type in "127.0.0.1" (without the quotes) and in the "Port" field type in "8080" (without quotes).

   • Enable the check-box for "Bypass proxy server for local addresses".

   • Click "Advanced".

   • In the "Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning with:" field, type in:

     neomailbox.net;www.neomailbox.net;
     neomailbox.nl;www.neomailbox.nl

     If you would like to view some sites directly and not through the proxy, list them (separated by ';') in this field too.

     NOTE: you must list neomailbox.net, neomailbox.nl, www.neomailbox.net, and www.neomailbox.nl in this field, as the tunneling service does not proxy requests for the Neomailbox Netherlands site itself. If you don't list these domains here, you won't be able to view the Neomailbox Netherlands site once the tunnel is activated.

   • Click "OK" on the "Proxy Settings" window.

   • Click "OK" on the "Local Area Network (LAN) Settings" window.

   • Click "OK" on the "Internet Options" window.

Now all your web requests will go through our SSL secured proxy and the results will be returned to you via the SSL secured channel.

You will be asked to supply your Neomailbox username and control panel password when you begin browsing.
