I would like to access a website in the U.S.(games)but it is only available to U.S. users. I found sites offering programs for money that can hide your IP address. One had the ability to NOT use an IP address from a country one could choose. But I did not find one that would allow me to specify that the IP address seen by the server MUST be from the U.S. The website I want to access is www.Gametap.com. I just want to try it out. Ideally, this would be a solution that would not require my buying any software. Any ideas? Joel |

2 things - Computer Shopper, I think this month, gave away ghostsurf on the cover page. Costs about £2.99 and is a good mag. This is a full product and seems to always give an IP address in Tucson or Phoenix Arizona. Next - have you tried this - http://www.the-cloak.com/anonymous-surfing-home.html ? |

You can acess it by entering via proxy. For list of proxies and detailed information here, a question answered by rhansenne-ga. http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=596139 Note that not for malicious purposes or cheating. >>> Naveen Kumar |

http://tor.eff.org You might need to configure it a little to only use US-based tor exit nodes, but if you press refresh enough times the problem should solve itself. |

http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=600987#a Hi Joel. The best way to go about this is to use a proxy. Proxify.com is unlikely to work, because it strips information that the site likely needs, and doesn't allow cookies. There are, however, a whole fleet of anonymous proxies, and many of them are US. In order to access the site, do the following If you're using Firefox 1) Download and Install SwitchProxy. http://www.roundtwo.com/product/switchproxyC 1.1) Click "Install", if Prompted Click "Edit Options" 1.2) Click "Add" (To allow roundtwo.com to install Switchproxy) 1.3) Click "Install" again 1.4) Click "OK" 1.5) Close and Re-Open Firefox 2) Download a Proxy List 2.1) You can get a proxy list from http://www.multiproxy.org/downloads.htm Either of those will be fine. Save it to your Desktop 2.2) On the Proxy toolbar, click "Add" 2.3) Choose "Anonymous" and click "Next" 2.4) In the Label Box type "Games" 2.5) Next to "File" Click "Browse" 2.6) Browse for the proxy.txt file you saved on your Desktop 2.7) Click "Load" 2.8) Click "OK" 3) Turn on Proxies 3.1) From the Proxy Dropdown box (Next to the Word "Proxy" on your toolbar), Choose "Games". Click Apply Now you should be able to surf your Games site in peace. If it still won't let you in, wait a minute and hit refresh a few times until SwitchProxy finds a proxy that's within the USA. When you want to surf normally again, Choose "None" from the Proxy Dropdown Box, and click apply Hope that helps you out |

Acces via a freewebbased proxy like http://tntproxy.com will work, but not if a system administrator blocked the url. In that case lookup the IP adress of the site and enter that in your browser adress field ;-) |
