How to Surf the Web Anonymously | IP Spoofing

First of all, if you are a noob you would think, why in this world should I spoof my IP. Well it's useful in a number of ways. For example, Rapidshare tracks your IP, so that if you are not a premium member you wont be allowed to download multiple files. But if you use a proxy server which dynamically changes your IP, you can download multiple files through Rapidshare. As another example, you intend to hack an organisational website which is not an easy task, you might need to visit their website quite a number of times, in this case you can spoof your IP to hide your identity. The best way to hide/change your IP while surfing is with the help of Proxy Servers.

What is a Proxy Server?
In computer networks, a proxy server is a server (a computer system or an application program) that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers. A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource, available from a different server. The proxy server evaluates the request according to its filtering rules. For example, it may filter traffic by IP address or protocol. If the request is validated by the filter, the proxy provides the resource by connecting to the relevant server and requesting the service on behalf of the client. A proxy server may optionally alter the client's request or the server's response, and sometimes it may serve the request without contacting the specified server. In this case, it 'caches' responses from the remote server, and returns subsequent requests for the same content directly.

Now as a first step in spoofing your IP, you need to find a proxy server. Well proxy servers are of two types- visible and invisible. Visible proxies are known to the web servers and they reveal your IP to the web servers. Invisible proxies do not reveal your identity to the web servers. So finding an invisible proxy is the main task. You can google it. Or if you are way too lazy you noob, we are giving a list of invisible proxies.

How to set a proxy server?

For Mozilla Firefox Users:
Go to Tools>Options>Advanced>Settings
Check the Manual Proxy Configuration Radio Button and enter the appropriate proxy address and port number there


For Internet Explorer users:
Go to Tools>Internet Options>Connections>LAN Settings
Check the Use a proxy server for your LAN check box and enter the address and port number for the proxy server

List of invisible proxy servers:

For all the following proxy servers enter the port number as 3128. All the servers might not be available at a particular time, so try each server.
