2.48.64.125:1087 open socks4 proxy was used on 26 November for a

only IP authentication through RCN.

plastered  on  every blank  space  on  every  wall, even  outnumbering  the
portraits  of  Big Brother.  The proles, normally  apathetic about the war,
were  being lashed  into one of their periodical frenzies of patriotism. As
though  to harmonize  with  the general  mood, the  rocket  bombs had  been
killing  larger  numbers of people  than usual. One  fell on a crowded film
theatre  in  Stepney, burying several  hundred victims among the ruins. The
whole  population of  the neighbourhood  turned  out for  a long,  trailing
funeral  which went  on for hours and was in effect an indignation meeting.
Another bomb fell on a piece of waste g
