You would have to spoof your IP Address... And quit stealing MP3s!!!

Did every new user who signed up this week not hit puberty yet??? :twisted:

but you'd expect these things to be known. I think he wants proxy.

I believe that there are tools to spoof your own IP and send as a false one.

Don't expect to receive a reply though from the remote host :wink:

I'm guessing the comment above made about the proxies is what he's looking for but perhaps he could tell us what he's actually trying to do

You can simply use a proxy server then. But that's no the point guys. He is posting in "coding questions" so I guess he want's to do it PB, doesn't he?

But do what exactly in PB?

Use a proxy? Spoof an IP?, change some value in IE?

Well, spoof the IP then. I have seen several tools doing this. But they are usually very slow and not really suited for realtime surfing.

:?
Maybe if you read the replies you will see that there is some confusion over the question and we are asking for clarification.

IE doesn't have an IP address, it uses the TCP/IP stack of the OS. If faking the address that you are sending from then the reply data goes back to the fake address (which means it doesn't come back to you... Think "Ping Request timed out" kind of thing).

If you want to use a proxy then you can update IE's registry settings using PB to set a proxy to whatever you want.

What are you trying to do?
