How Can You Protect Your Ip

[joe1234567890]

I didn't relize how easy it was to get someones IP and get all there info. Is there a way to block it or some one just can't help it?

[muchspl2]

what info? your isp and general location
really nothing short of proxies that you can do
what are you afraid of?

[exeus]

you can use a socks 5 proxy server/s for just about everything u use on the net with the right program controling it
or if your just talking browser use anon http server

EDIT: reguarding the above the last guy that ent me spam form his ip i got his name address and phone number (yes i did ring him)
and there are been plenty of instances when all you need is an ip to get all of the above info....

EDIT: the lamer has had his internet taken off him LMAO
just for the record i HATE spammers...

Your IP has to be available for communication, Emai, web pages, etc. They have to know your address otherwise how would you receive it

Most people assume proxies will solve the problem of identity - but it dont. Your ISP will ALLWAYS know what you are doing (IF they take the time to look of course).

Thats probably true - i was only stating a fact some people seem to forget when using proxies. Someone somewhere allways knows what you do and who you are. You are never truly safe - even behind a company firewall or router. It can all be traced if someone bothers to take the time B)
