Re: Captive Portal bypassing

["T Biehn" <tbiehn () gmail com>]

There was a tool that would do exactly that, on a long-defunct TOR
hidden service, and it was mentioned in this paper for bypassing
captive portals at airports. The technique, and naturally the tool,
was applicable in most situations involving payment portals.

Unfortunately I don't remember anything about it, except that there
was no win32 port, except a lot of complaining of that fact (replete
with suggestions to use winPCap) and that the tool itself started with
the letter 'p.' It was exactly what you want and worked on unixes /
macosx. Happy googling!
