How To Hide Your IP While Browsing Using Google Chrome
As you probably heard already, Google has launched his own browser called Chrome. This is rather a surprise taking into account that for years Google has supported Firefox. This is a proof that, after all, everyone has his own agenda. Anyway, if you are interested in finding more info about Google Chrome I recommend you read Google Chrome, Google’s Browser Project.
Let’s see now how we can manually configure this new browser to hide your IP address.
First go to WhatIsMyIPAddress.com and check your real IP address.
Then you have to find a proxy to be used as an intermediate between you and the sites you visit. For example take one from here or search Google for “fresh proxies”.
After you have chosen the proxy you can start configuring Chrome browser.Here are the steps you have to perform:
1. Open Google Chrome
2. Go to Tools-> Options…
3. Press Change proxy settings button.
4. Choose Connections tab and press LAN Settings button:
5. In the Local Area Network (LAN) Settings window, check Use a proxy server for your LAN:
6. In the same window fill in the Address and the Port taken from the proxy list (e.g. 66.118.187.76 :8080 where the IP address of the proxy is 66.118.187.76 and the port is 8080):
7. Press Ok and then Ok again and you are done.
8. After the configuration is completed go to whatismyipaddress.com and check your new IP address. You can now browse anonymously using Google Chrome.
Important! After you are done with your activites under hidden ip, do not forget to uncheck Use a proxy server for your LAN. These proxies have a limitted life time and usually slow down your internet connection. So use them only when you need!
It’s that simple! Happy Surfing!
