Now I’ll come to the heart of the post, which contains the answer to your curious question How to Hide the IP address ? The only solution to hide your IP address is by using a Proxy Server. But Wait! The story doesn’t end here. Even though proxy servers are the only way to hide your IP address, there are several ways of connecting your PC to the proxy server. Before setting up the connection with the proxy servers you must know some information about different types of proxy servers and their uses.

1. Transparent Proxy Server
This type of proxy server identifies itself as a proxy server and also makes the original IP address available through the http headers. These are generally used to speedup the web browsing since thay have a very good ability to cache websites. But they do not conceal the IP of it’s users. It is widely known as transparent proxy because it will expose your real IP address to the web. This type of proxy server does not hide your IP address.

2. Anonymous Proxy Server
This type of proxy server identifies itself as a proxy server, but does not make the original IP address available. This type of proxy server is detectable, but provides reasonable anonymity for most users. This type of proxy server will hide your IP address.

3. Distorting Proxy Server
This type of proxy server identifies itself as a proxy server, but make an incorrect original IP address available through the http headers. This type of proxy server will hide your IP address.

4. High Anonymity Proxy Server (Elite Proxy)
This type of proxy server does not identify itself as a proxy server and does not make available the original IP address. This type of proxy server will hide your IP address.So this is the best way to mask your IP.

Which Proxy Server is the best to Hide My IP ?

I know, you can answer this question better than me.Obviously High Anonymity Proxy or Elite Proxy is the best to hide your IP. But it’s not easy to get a list of working elite proxies. If you search the Google, you will definitely get tons of proxy list. You’ll get a list of proxies in the following format
IP:Port Number

Eg: 221.90.45.67:8080 (221.90.45.67 is the IP of the proxy server and 8080 is the port number)
But most of them don’t work. Here are some of the problems/risks associated with using free proxies that are available on the internet.

Most of them do not work since the proxy servers frequently changes it’s IP/Port number.
Even if you find a working proxy server it may be too slow.
Your privacy is not guaranteed since all your traffic is routed through the proxy server.
The administrators of the proxy servers may steal your valuable information such as passwords, SSN (Social security number), Credit Card details etc.

So with all these being the risks then how to find a working, fast ,highly anonymous and secured Proxy servers?

Now I will share the software that works like charm to change the email accounts.
