Social media has both advantages and disadvantages. For example, an office worker claims that he is working on a report, and a minute later the boss sees the page of this employee with the status “Online” on Vkontakte. Or you want to listen to music and chat with a classmate, but an uncomfortable interlocutor, who cannot but answer, sees the same status. How can you not think about remaining invisible!
It is necessary
- - knowledge of the browser installed on your computer;
- - access to the Internet.
Instructions
Step 1
If you use Mozilla Firefox to work with the Internet, go to the Vkontakte website and make sure that you are not authorized on the resource (if you are still authorized, click Exit). Then enter the "about: config" command in the address bar to open the browser settings menu.
Step 2
In the menu that appears, look for the "Filter" field and enter the command "network.http.redirection-limit" into it. The parameter that appears after entering must be remembered and then changed to 0, which will mean that the call forwarding is prohibited.
Step 3
Next, you need to go to the VKontakte website and go through the authorization procedure. During this process, an error message may appear - you just need to ignore it. Now you need to go to any page except the main page of any user (it ends with profile.php or id12345678).
Step 4
Go back to the settings tab and change the value of the network.http.redirection-limit parameter to the original one. Now, if you do not visit the main pages of users, including your own, you will be invisible to other users.
Step 5
If you prefer Opera, select the "Tools" button from the browser menu, then "Options", "Advanced" and finally "Network". Here you need to uncheck the box next to "Enable automatic redirection". After that, you need to complete the first four steps of the operations of this instruction.
Step 6
There is another way, but it also works with limitations. Log in to the Vkontakte website, go to any page except the main page and wait 15-20 minutes for the system connection timeout to complete. After that, you will be invisible to network users if you do not visit the main pages (profile.php or id12345678). This method is relevant for the Safari and Chrome browsers.
Step 7
There is also a special application for the Chrome browser called VKontakte Offline, which, as the name suggests, allows you to work with a social network without visiting its website. Such an application is suitable for those who do not want to waste time waiting or dealing with browser settings.
Step 8
Since the above methods do not always meet all the requirements of a secret user of "Vkontakte", it is best to download and install a special program to work with the aforementioned social network. The best program for secret use "Vkontakte" is VKLife, the main thing is not to forget to click the "Offline" button on the control panel. Other programs include IceIM, VKSovety, VKGetter.
