Each computer with Internet access gets its own individual number, which is called an IP address. With its help, you can track any user movements on the Internet. The problem has become especially acute recently, so many users are thinking about hiding their IP address.

Instructions
Step 1
Regardless of whether you want it or not, every step you take on the Internet leaves a mark in the logs of Internet servers. By launching your browser and visiting sites, you voluntarily give information about your IP address, name and version, type of operating system, as well as many other information about your computer. To avoid most of the potential problems, you need to hide your IP address.
Step 2
One of the ways to hide the individual number of your computer is to use an online service to hide your IP address. There are a large number of such services on the Internet, so it will not be difficult for you to find one of them. Go to the page, enter in the special field the address of the site you want to visit, and get started. Now, on the sites you visited, traces of the anonymizer service remain, and your real IP address is hidden. The process is automated, and you don't need to type in a new address while following the links. But this method has its drawbacks - not all such services are free. In the free version, you will periodically have to look at ad units.
Step 3
You can hide your IP address using a proxy server. To do this, you will need a list of free proxy servers (it is also easy to find it). Select one of the servers (for example, 213.180.89.189:80) and copy the data before the colon. Next, open your browser, go to the "Tools" menu and open the "Settings" item. Then go to the "Advanced" tab, in it open the "Network" submenu. In it, click on the "Configure" button. In the window that opens, select the "Manual proxy server configuration" item and enter the copied address. Then add the data after the colon to the "Port" item. Save your changes and check your IP address on one of the designated sites.
Step 4
You don't have to manually change your proxy server for anonymization. To perform the same operations in automatic mode, use one of the programs that hide the IP address (there are a lot of them on the network, for example, Tor, Jap or SocksChain). Such programs are easy to manage and do their job perfectly. Take advantage of such programs - choose a proxy to have an IP of a specific country, or build proxy servers in a chain to ensure a high level of anonymity.
