Hide My IP is a powerful and approachable
application you can use to make your IP address anonymous when
connecting to the Internet, by switching to a fake one.
This way, you can protect your real identity from
hijackers, as well as lift bans on content blocked due to geographical
restrictions. It has advanced settings.
Runs in the systray
The setup operation is fast and easy. Once launched,
the tool creates an icon in the system tray area and sits there
silently while providing quick access to the main configuration panel
and options.
Therefore, it becomes minimally invasive and lets
you carry on with your normal PC activity while giving you the
possibility to swiftly hide your IP address and make it visible again.
Clean and intuitive interface
The main app window has a simple design and neatly
structured layout, where you can get started by selecting a target
location from the list to assume a fake IP address. For example, you can
opt for various locations from the US, Australia, Austria, Belgium, or
Canada.
From the tray icon's right-click menu, it's possible
to view your current IP address on the developer's website, copy the
real or fake IP, and hide your real IP with one click.
Select another country and restrict the app
Hide My IP can be instructed to use the fake IP
address when dealing with web browsers only, all Internet-based apps, or
only specific programs Plus, it can always use the IP address from the
last session if you don't want to cycle multiple fake identifications,
and autorun on Windows startup.
Select web browsers and rotate IP addresses

can enable or disable the utility for Google Chrome, Internet Explorer,
Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Safari and any other known browsers, hide or
change the user agent, hide the referrer header, encrypt your connection
via SSL, enable smart IP rotation, set the frequency and clear cookies
on IP change, prevent service autostart, as well as create a list with
fake IP addresses to discard.

impact on system performance. Taking into account its advanced and
intuitive options, Hide My IP should meet the requirements of many users
looking to protect their online ID.
