R600 Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Can someone tell me what is the best way to hide the IP of the computer that one is using to deter IP sniffers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amdphr3@kXP Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 simple, use ip address spoofing, many isp's use this to mask the ip's of their internal machines to deter hackers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamehead200 Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Use an anonymous proxy...Keeps your real IP address away from forums such as MSFN and NTFS... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R600 Posted August 21, 2003 Author Share Posted August 21, 2003 I've tried using a proxy, but couldn't load any webpages after I entered the IP address of the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rik Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Might try a freeware app called Proxomitron. Get it from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehmod Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Might try a freeware app called Proxomitron. Get it from here. The program sounds very good. Do you have to download everything on that page for the program to work or will it work through just one file download? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLXX Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 (edited) I've tried using a proxy, but couldn't load any webpages after I entered the IP address of the server.You'll need to find a working proxy... approximately 1% of the proxies from proxylists actually work.Proxomitron only works with HTTP proxies, but its main use is as a "filter" to rewrite webpages in realtime (kill ads, popups, drive-by-downloads, etc.) - in fact I'm using it right now.I recommend Proxifier and a SOCKS proxy, in conjunction with Proxomitron.Here's a few thousand SOCKS proxies to try: http://nntime.com/socks Edited July 24, 2006 by LLXX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been trying for a few hours now without any success in hiding or changing my IP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tain Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I second LLXX's recommendations. Proxomitron will *not* mask your IP as the first poster requested, but it works great at web filtering. You can also use these filters with it.The only real problem with Proxomitron is that the author met an untimely death so it is no longer under development. Proximodo is a potential open-source replacement but I haven't had much luck with it yet and development seems to have stalled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehmod Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 I also read about a small command you enter into DOS mode and type "ipconfig/release" press enter and then type in "ipconfig/renew" and again press enter. That was supposed to change the IP address, but it does not seem to work on my computer. Does anyone know any small commands/codes that can be used for this. Also, does changing the dns help with changing IP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tain Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 The commands are actually "ipconfig /release" and "ipconfig /renew" (note the space) and you can get more info on them with "ipconfig /help". But no, that won't necessarily change your IP due to the way that DHCP leases work.No, changing your DNS won't help with changing your IP.This thread is going all over the place. What is goal? To change your IP at will? To get a certain IP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLXX Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Release IP, change MAC, then renew IP.That should give you a new IP address on most ISPs that don't lock MAC addresses to accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptMurphy Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 (edited) The real way to hide yourself is to block cookies, turn off java and javascript, use high anonymity proxies from brazil, germany, or china, and spoof your MAC address.

nitroshift Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 The real way to hide yourself is to block cookies, turn off java and javascript, use high anonymity proxies from brazil, germany, or china, and spoof your MAC address.Or use a program like HideIP...
