XB Browser
web browser designed to run on both the Tor and XeroBank anonymity networks
xB Browser (formerly known as TorPark and Xerobank browser ) is a web browser designed to run on both the Tor and XeroBank anonymity networks, and is available as component of the xB Machine and the xB Installer.
It is designed for use on portable media such as a USB flash drive, but it can also be used on any hard disk drive. As such, a secure and encrypted connection to any of the Tor or XeroBank routers can be created from any computer with a suitable Internet connection, and the browser clears all data that was created on the portable drive upon exit or on demand.
In 2007, TorPark was rebranded as xB Browser. At the time, it claimed 4 million downloads, increasing to over 6.5 million by February 2008.
History
Steve Topletz co-released Torpark v.1.5.0.7 with CULT OF THE DEAD COW/Hacktivismo on 19 September 2006 after more than one year of development based on Portable Firefox web browser with built in support for Tor.
Network usage
xB Browser routes Internet traffic through the Tor network, obscuring the originating IP address and encrypting the data.
xB Browser is optimized for use on the XeroBank anonymity network, which is a private and commercial broadband network operated by Xero Networks AG.
Features
Besides the anonymous networks, xB Browser uses following add-ons:
Adblock Plus,
Cookies and Flash cookies removal,
Browser history clearing after closing.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “XB Browser” as web browser designed to run on both the Tor and XeroBank anonymity networks. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as web browser designed to run on both the Tor and XeroBank anonymity networks. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 17, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q576382. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2007, 2008 and 2006.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
