    Depends what country you are in.

    Just remember to act like a spy and ask quietly your geek friends (of the net, never leave a trail) what proxy they trust.

    You can't not have an IP, so what you want is to have an IP that is unrelated to you. Here are some proxies you could set your computer to use to appear to be in another location:

    Mac Mini Server | MacBook Pro | iPhone | Other Macs + a bunch of iPods, Newtons and other toys
    Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.

    The best way to mask your Ip address is by using Proxy Servers.There are many free and paid proxy servers available on Internet.When using a proxy server,It masks your Real Public IP address and show the details of the proxy you are using.You can check your Ip address from IP-Details.com .It will show the ip address which is visible to others over the Internet.
