Proxies
What is a Proxy Server?
A proxy server is a kind of buffer between your computer and the Internet
resources you are accessing. The data you request come to the proxy first, and
only then it transmits the data to you. I know many are looking for IP Maskers
or Scramblers, but honestly, it aint real easy for the simple fact that any
website that you visit needs your IP to send the info packets too. If its
scrambled, you will get a lot of errors and crazy redirects :P My solution? Read

Why do I need to use proxy servers?
Transfer speed improvement. Proxy servers accumulate and save files that are
most often requested by thousands of Internet users in a special database,
called “cache”. Therefore, proxy servers are able to increase the speed of your
connection to the Internet. The cache of a proxy server may already contain
information you need by the time of your request, making it possible for the
proxy to deliver it immediately.
Security and privacy. Anonymous proxy servers that hide your IP address thereby saving you from vulnerabilities concerned with it.
Sometimes you may encounter problems while accessing to web server when server administrator restricted access from your IP or even from wide IP range (for example restricting access from certain countries or geographical regions). So you try to access those pages using an anonymous proxy server.
