Clandestine Surfing with Ghostzilla
There is a new kid in the browser block and its name is Ghostzilla. Ghostzilla is a Mozilla-based browser whose tagetted users are those that surf the ‘net at the office. This browser opens up in any active window on your desktop and it automatically hides itself whenever you move your mouse away from the opened browser window. To make it re-appear again, rapidly move the mouse pointer from left to right to left again — making sure that the pointer “touches” both the left and right edge.
If you have several active programs open in your desktop, Ghostzilla will magically appear on the front-most active window. Once it is activated, the webpage you are surfing on looks unobtrusive and a casual observer will not even guess that you are on the ‘net. Since you are busy reading the contents on-screen, they may simply assume that you are busy working. Slick huh??? The animation below shows how Ghostzilla basically works (the animated gif is from the Ghostzilla Site)

Ghostzilla looks like its still in its early versions but as it is, it is quite usable if you are not surfing on graphics-intensive sites. Great for browsing blogs (like this one) since it works well with websites with a lot of texts in it. Since this browser is based on Mozilla, its a bit more secure than IE.




Slacking on the job just got better … I guess! I just hope that I could install this in my office PC. LOL!
