Hi guys,

is it possible to hide my IP address in Tiger or download software that would do it? Don't worry it's not for any seedy reasons haha,

I just wanted to watch some of the boxing videos on Showtime's boxing site, but I'm not allowed as Showtime have not seemed to grasp the whole idea of the WWW and it locks me out because I don't live in the US.

I'm in the UK.

Well... you can hide your address all you want, but then no-one can send you any information.

You would have to find a proxy server that would be willing to do this. But you are unlikely to like the results because proxying usually adds lag, and slows things down.

1. Install Tor. Hides IP addrss, but doesn't guarantee a US address. Also, probably doesn't have bandwidth for streaming video.

Sign up (i.e., pay) with Guardster, Megaproxy , Anonymizer or similar anonymous web proxy service. I don't know how well they handle streaming video.
