Hey guys, what’s up? David here, iPod Touch 2G and welcome to another one of my Windows HD tips. Now in this video, I’ll be showing you how you can hide your IP address so you can get past blocked websites or get more privacy and stuff like that. It’s really simple to do. All you’ve going to do is download this program called Hide My IP. You can get that at hidemyip.com/download.shtml. Link for this will be in the video description to the right and once you click on the link you should get to this website and to download it all I do is select download Hide My IP 2009 and you’re going to save the binary file and just going to let it download and this is free for 14 days for the trial version or if you want to keep it forever then it will be $29.95.
So as you can see I have Hide My IP right here. We’re going to open it and run the installation, so you’re going to need to close all of your internet browsers and then just go ahead and install like you would in any normal program. It should go fairly fast so we’re going to run Hide My IP and then as you can see you got that little icon there and because I’ve already downloaded this I only have about 10 hours left so we’re going to do continue trial.
Also as you can see right down here in the icons, it has a little icon there so you might have to click on that to open it, and right here I will blur some of these out because I don’t want you guys knowing my IP address. Not like you’re going to do anything bad, right? I’ll blur some of the numbers out, and so to hide your IP all you got to do is select Hide My IP. So we’re going to watch my IP changed. So this is my original IP right now but it’s like Hide My IP and now it will search for an available IP address.
Now if you’re in the US you can set it to search for IP addresses only located in the US. If you don’t it will search for them located all around the world so just to prove to you guys let me go ahead and open up Firefox again. I’m going to go to see myIP.com and then as you can see this is the same exact IP address that Hide My IP found or showed me and now as you can see the two are different. It used to start with 75 now it starts with 174 so let me just show you. Let me just refresh this page so, now as you can see I changed both of them so it’s that easy to change your IP address.
Again you might want to do this if you want to get past maybe a blocked website, if you want to hide your privacy or hide your personal files and stuff like that. So thanks guys for watching, just remember to rate, comment and subscribe. See you later guys.
