How To Manually Mask Your IP Using Safari 3.x
First, you should check your real IP address. On IPLocate.info you can see how web sites see your IP address and other info about your browser and computer like Operating System, Platform, Browser Name, etc.
The next step is to find a proxy (i.e. find a new ip address for your computer). You can go to Proxy 4 Free site (also check our list of proxy sites) and choose a proxy from any country you like. Make sure you choose a high anonymity proxy.
After you have chosen the proxy you can start configuring your Safari 3.x.
Here are the steps you should follow:
- Open Safari 3.x
- Go to Edit -> Preferences:

- Choose Advanced tab and press Proxies : Change Settings button:

- In the Internet Options window press LAN Settings button:

- In the Local Area Network (LAN) Settings window, check Use a proxy server for your LAN:

- In the same window fill in the Address and the Port of the proxy taken from Proxy 4 Free list(e.g. 212.4.14.145: 80 where the IP address of the proxy is 212.4.14.145 and the port is 80):

- Press Ok and then Ok again and you are done.
Your Safari configuration is completed. In order to check it, go to IPLocate.info and see your new IP address.
Important! If the page does not load probably the proxy is too slow or is not available any more. Try another one!
After you are done with your anonymous browsing activites, do not forget to uncheck Use a proxy server for your LAN. Use these settings only when you need to browse under hidden ip address!

Your instructions for safari include: edit / preferences / advanced / change settings (which are all mac) then you go into internet options / lan settings….. which are windows. Confusing

@Jason: You are right. This is because it is Safari for Windows I am describing above.
