How to hide your IP from forumotion.com

you can use a web proxy or ip cloak that directs all traffic from your ip through their proxy server. so, though i am posting from india, my IP will appear to forumotion.com as being of that of someone in georgia (if i am using the proxy).

there are paid IP proxies on the net. for example this: http://www.hide-my-ip.com/download.shtml

paid proxies have IPs that are not blacklisted by sites susceptible to vandalism (like wikipedia.com). forumotion.com has no blacklist.

there are also free proxies. for example, go to this site: http://hidemyass.com/proxy/ and type https://such.forumotion.com/f1-coffeehouse-main in the box and start surfing anonymously. register an id and post away. your IP will always show you as being in texas (if you live in texas...hard luck! try another free web proxy).

to check if it works, type http://www.whatismyip.com/ in the box and see your IP for yourself.

to double check if it works, use the above proxy, register, post and give a blue flower to the admin (look in the emoticons menu). the admin will tell you your IP as he sees it.
