Hiding your IP Via Anonymizer.com or other Proxy servers.
I was surfing the net, playing with Anonymizer.com's anonymous proxy server,
and i got to thinking....what if i could do the same with ICQ.
Well, you can. Go to the little ICQ button, then Add/Change current user
then register a new user. Once you get there, click LAN user, then
I am behinf a firewall or proxy. Then click SOCKS4 proxy server.
For SOCKS4 host put: 209.75.196.16 (thats anon.free.anonymizer.com)
for SOCKS4 port put: 80
Then click next and fill in the other bllshit information and click register.
Once you are registered your IP will show up as: 209.75.196.16 !!
Downsides: I relised that when i attempted to send a message it just sat there trying to send, until i went offline, came back online and clicked retry or send through server.
This may just be my computer or anonymizer, because i tried this with another proxy server and it worked fine.
