You are lucky that it even shows you online at all. It indicates Boards is somewhere Northeast of Wichita Kansas and it does not show me located anywhere at all.

How do you use a proxy server? What the heck even is a proxy server?

It is a form of anonymous web surfing that hides your IP address. It sends the receiving party a false IP address therby masking your real IP.

You can purchase commercial software that will allow you to do this such as Anonymizer or an equivalent. Or you can find plenty of free proxy servers online.

There are a lot of forums that detects proxies and will not allow entry to that forum or website. Az can tell you more about that, but if I am not mistaken OCD will not allow proxies.

I have no problem at all posting my IP address because when it is looked up all it shows is that it is Cox Communications Pensacola Florida. I have never made a secret that Cox is my ISP.
