Alright haven't posted in a while but i need some help. Ive been using Hide ip platinum to hide my ip address online but all it does is switch me back and forth from china and Mexico. does anyone know of a program that lets me choose where I am? My reason forneeding to hide my IP is irrelivent but not illegal.

I just got a bunch of free proxies from random countries and entered them in

You can stay on 1 or randomly switch through them over a amount of time you chose.

Honestly, Felino, is it any of your business?

Proxy Switcher is a good one, lets you choose region from a huge downloaded list of proxies or you can enter the IP of your own proxy.

Thats a tad harsh, but just use a web proxy.

For short term things only.

That doesn't help with other protocols.

Remember, its very easy for someone who runs a website to see your "real" IP. A Proxy wont hide it 100%. Someone with some knowledge about computers and such can easily trace through the proxy and find your IP.
