how to set up UltraSurf with FireFox



1. Firstly you need to install UltraSurf Firefox Tool.

Go to: http://ultrasurf.us/support.html

3. Click on it and a dialog balloon automatically pops up on top of your screen. Click on the "Allow" button.

4. A box called "Software Installation" will pop up. Now click on "Install" button.

5. Now if you click on "Tools" and then click "Add-ons", you should see UltraSurf Firefox Tool in the list.

6. Click on "Options" button, a box will pop up showing you the display and Proxy settings.

7. You don't have to change the original setting. Let it be. The Proxy Settings should be "Use the recommended proxy settings".

8. Now open your Ultrasurf. You should see a big golden lock icon at the bottom right hand corner of your computer screen.

9. For those of you who live outside US or Canada, try to access Pandora Internet Radio.

9. If every thing is in order, you should be able to access this online radio website right away.

10. But if you cannot access these two sites with Firefox, then there is a good possibility you have other proxy settings on your Firefox.

11. From my own experience, I have installed FoxyProxy in my Firefox. This is the one which is causing the problem.

I cannot access both Pandora radio and hulu.com.

12. This is what I do:

13. Open Firefox browser, click Tools >> Options >> Networks.

14. Click on "Settings" button.

15. I click on the Default proxy.

16. Then I click "Edit Selection" button.

17. A box pops up. Then I click on "Proxy Details" tab.

18. Then I change the setting from Direct internet connection (no proxy) to Manual Proxy Configuration.

19. Next I type "localhost" into the box next to Host or IP Address and "9666" next to Port.

Note: No opening and closing quotes for both localhost and 9666.  

20. Now click "OK" and then click on "Close" button.

That's all. Enjoy!
