And if the answer is yes, can anybody recommend some fast and free proxies? I would really prefer it if I don't have to install anything.

Thanks biggrin.gif

    umm, do you mean its different as in every few mins (doubt it) or everytime you reconnection ie. turn off+turn on modem? your probally got a dynamic ip, which isnt a bad thing.

    LMAO. I didn't know what happened but I once had a virus that changed my IP every few minutes. Everyone was like oO; Erm...... yeah XD. You're lucky if the IP changes all the time. I wish mine would do that again =/

    Do what you think would be best. I would probably end up using a proxy just to be on the super safe side. XD

    Sorry for the mix up O.O I didn't even know IP addresses could change every few minutes...

    Mine changes every time I disconnect+connect again. (I don't have to turn off/on my modem)

    And unfortunately I don't really know to use proxies well. Help, please? biggrin.gif

    yeh your dynmaic, a lot of people are. with proxies, you find the ip and the port number, and configure it into your browser. Im pretty sure you can configure it into your connection, so everything goes through it. But it will probally be slow, depending on the server.
