How To: Use your Seedbox as a Proxy for Private Browsing and Required Trackers.
This tutorial will explain how to setup your browser so that your internet connection is routed through your seedbox allowing you to use your seedbox as a private proxy server. This serves as a replacement method to tunneling through putty via SSH and allows you to browse and download from trackers that restrict downloading to the same IP as was browsed, ie: Demoniod. This also keeps your true IP anonymous from certain sources and lists our seedbox IP instead.
