It’s very annoying that if your favorite websites block your country because of one or many reasons. And some of the websites have a limited bandwidth to some country. They blocked it by find where the ip address you come from. You can check your external ip address by go to this website.

You can bypass your ip address by using proxy. With proxy you can access your website indirectly. So the website you visited will not recognize your real ip address. So your connection will not blocked or filtered.

I had to use proxies to cheat in a voting contest. Too bad there are not more working proxies than we can find on the net. I also used web based proxy pages to cheat. I have to say that we won the voting contest but it took a little work because not all proxies are good and not all web based proxy sites work either. Sure glad I am not depending on proxies but they are very useful in some instances :) On another note, what would we do with out search engines? We would be lost hehehehe. I was able to find some good public proxy sites thanks to google search.

That's not exactly the truth..

Many if not the most "open" proxies are "transparent" thus revealing your true IP to the site you're visiting.

It has to be an highly anonymous proxy and you're hidden.

To check if you're really hidden or not,here's two sites which will tell you your IP:

http://proxify.com/whoami/

There's a lot of these "Hide IP" commercial softwares out,and 99% of them are BS.

(Infact,one certain producer sells like 3-5 "different" hide ip softwares,under different web-sites and under different names,all they do is to fetch

automatically proxy lists from web sites anyone can fetch manually for free,but those softwares pick any proxies..)

Here's some sites to find Highly Anonymous proxies..

Nice post,whatsoever. :)
