How to auto insert the ip instead of address in browser?

[Woomera]

ok i was thinking about how can make my browser(or even all my internet connections)that when they try to reach a host by the name the automaticly get the ip of the host and use the ip instead of address.

is it possible? any software that can edit the connections for this goal?

Your browser, and anything that only has the host URL, already does just that. It’s called DNS resolving. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_name_system

Or are you saying you want to do it yourself? Unless your ISP’s service is giving you trouble then there’s not much to be gained.

lol i know what is forward dns lookup is

here is the problem:my isp has content filtering not only for porn X( also for politic-related...anyway.i can open the websites by just typing their ip adrs and not the name.(when you type the name it appears in the packet and they filter it)

now i dont want to do all the time my self.i want a program that grap the name,resolve it to ip and then put it back in the link bar.

Hey i found something for u, lol i remebered this stuff from more than 2+ years ago. Your lucky

Disclaimer: i never wrote any of these apps but they look like they work and are from a trusted source/site so it chould be ok

1. this is very basic but does exactly what you want easily.

Discription:

basically you put in a website address ie www.google.com, it gives you the ip adress and lets you copy it to the clipbored or open it in internet explorer..... easy

2. this is from the same guy but more of a full new internet browser(not ie or firefox) + database + ftp + whois + popup blocker. i think although this 1 is so much more advanced and will store you address's in a database for future access, i think its a bit over kill. but anyway

THERES ONLY ONE "CATCH"

These programs are still code and need compiling(made in to .exe files windows can run).

You would have to do that yourself

http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/vb/default.aspx

Thats microsofts FREE visual basic express, which MIGHT compile it. The code is written in VB6 but the micrsoft program might be vb.net only. But it should work.

if your not sure you could ask one of the programmer guys on this form to help you. The source codes are from good site so not to worry. There not mine all credit goes to this guy

Oh I get it. Sorry, don't know of anything that can do that automatically, but I would not be surprised if there was such a thing somewhere.

well that browser may work somehow but yet not what i was looking for.anyone have ever used ACHILLES?

see what that does? it capture the cookies that your browser is trying to send out and put it in pause so you can edit it and then send the modefied one and server think your browser sent that.actualy i was looking for something like that,that monitor dns forwarding packets and resolve it itself and respond to browser.or something like that so the isp wont detect it

hello my friend im back, lol ive found a even better solution

http://www.opendns.com/

thats it no databases, no browser cookie hacks, half a** dns copy paste jobs.

this my friend is a free and open dns server, all dns enquires go to it instead of your isp. so u must agree thats good news

Even OpenDNS blocks sites it considers 'malicious' -.-

Use these 4.* DNS servers:

4.2.2.1

4.2.2.2

4.2.2.3

4.2.2.4

[Woomera]

Good point AREA.this could really works if i was still on manual settings,see,now i use PPPoE connection to my ISP.that means i have no control over settings like dns.even if i change it on my adsl connection settings it wont effect in here.

there must be a way to run around this problem
