Anyone any idea how to make an IP appear to be in another country?

Anyone any other ideas or good services that offer this kind of facility?

I used The Proxy Connection for a few months and thought they offered great service. I talked to the owner for about 45 minutes on the phone and he was knowledgeable and very helpful. I will use their service again if the need arises.

Proxy Connection looks interesting but it makes expensive TV at $50 per month - that's twice as much as I pay for Digital Satellite!

It would be more interesting too if they had a try before you buy service because so far my experience of proxy servers is that access to streaming is pretty poor.

TOR is nice and everything, but you don't really have control of which exit router to use, and thus it's pretty useless for this case :)

Actually, i think i recall reading that it's possible through some ini editing to set the entry point, the exit point and how many hops.

urlwolf:
If you have a friend in the country you want to be 'be' in ip-wise, ask him to give you an account on a machine.

Alternatively, you can use VPN to any network in that country. Your IP would show up from that country as you want.

There is instructions for doing it to access pandora.com from outside the US, with tor, here:

Probably will work for what you want, Carol...just replace the 'www.pandora.com' in the tor.pac file with the site you want, instead.
