477925 2006-08-12 05:37:00 ok i've been wanting to signup to a musicians forum on her website,but it says your ip address is collected and shown in post. i don't want my ip address show in posts.
If u use a proxy server to make forums post on her website, will that stop my ip address showing up?

477926 2006-08-12 05:44:00 Generally yes. Although some proxies put in additional infomration that is sent to a web server that includes the IP Address they were proxying for.

Just check you IP Address on another website after using a proxy.

Can you look around the forum?, if you can do you see any other people ip address?
