How to Easily Hide/Change your IP Address on your PC

Some people still find it hard to hide their IP Online. I have gotten a lot of mails and calls on people asking me how can they hide or change their IP Address.

There are 3 Effective ways to Hide/Change your IP online, they are:
1. Using a Proxy Details.
2. Browsing behind a Proxy Site.
3. Using a Proxy Software that Automatically Hide your IP and assign your IP to anyone of your choice.

Let me explain each of them in Details.

USING A PROXY DETAILS

Using Proxy Details is the act of manually inserting the Ip and port of a Country into your browser to appear as if you are browsing from that Country! e.g Maybe now you want to Open an Online U.S Account and you find out that Nigeria is not available on the list of countries but U.S is available. Normally, you cannot register or do anything but by changing your IP to that of U.S, you can register for the Account and you won't be Caught. Now, let me show you How to use Proxy Details to change your IP.

FOLLOW THIS STEP TO KNOW HOW TO HIDE YOUR IP USING PROXY DETAILS
1. Visit http://www.proxy-list.org scroll down to the bottom of the site and enter the code into the captcha field, then you will be re-directed to a webpage that contains the list of IP, Port, Country of IP and IP Type and Many others.
2. Locate and choose the one that Match the Country you want, then Write or copy the IP and Port, and then Open your Browser e.g Mozilla, Opera, Internet Explorer etc. You can even search for Proxy you will like to use on that page.
3. Then the next thing to do is to configure your Browser with the IP and Port you copied from the Site.
4. You are done, You can now browse the Page that you are not allowed to browse.

This Method is actually the Most Popular and widely used method, but I strongly believe its not secured compared to the otherways. If you just want to browse through a page or website without anything that vital or important, then this one is better and encouraging but if you want to do something tangible, pls don't use this.

HIDING YOUR IP VIA PROXY SITE
1. I Guess we all know about Proxy Site? This are Sites that allows us to enter another site URL and access it e.g http://hidemyass.com, http://sneakme.net, http://goproxing.com etc. This sites provides an Address tab and ask you to enter any Website Address you want to Access and once you click on it, you will be able to access it, Proxy Site also hide your Identity and also change the county you are browsing but most proxy server hide important stuff in a website and make it look crappy.

USING A PROXY SOFTWARE

From my Experience this has been One of the Best way to Secure yourself and identity Online and also keep yourself Anonymous to some Country Restricted Website, With Proxy Software Installed on your PC, you can now claim to browse from Germany, U.S while Browsing from Nigeria. There are many of this Software but they have different Features, Some are Free and some are not but I will list out 2 Strong Free proxy software.
1. NotmyIP proxy Software.
2. Hotshield

I will be Discussing and Reviewing only NotmyIP, You can learn how to use other Proxy Software on Google.

iPhone 5S and Budget iPhone Launch Date

Apple is really gearing up to make sure that the next iPhone (iPhone
5S) and the low-budget iPhone gets released to the public by/before
summer ends.

In actual fact, from a source which we can vouch its credibility,
Friday September 6th seems the time these devices would be finally
unveiled.

According to the information which emanated from a German site, the
statement reads: The next-generation iPhone will be according to our
information on 6 September come on the market. In addition to that
day, two new types of devices to be available and thus are not two
different color variations or memory meant. This information can reach
us from a very credible and serious source.

It is known that iPhone 5S and low-budget iPhone would be shipped with
iOS 7 and may also include a finger print sensor.

Apple is taking gesture and security to a whole new level with its
upcoming devices. This we observed from the settings embedded in iOS 7
which allows a user to control the phone by nodding and shaking of the
head. Its also possible that the finger print sensor would serve more
as a deterrent to erasing of an iPhone 5S by an unauthorized person.
This would in fact make it difficult to either sell a stolen iPhone 5S
or erase a stolen iPhone 5S.

This would in turn reduce the high rates newer generation iDevices
would be stolen.

How to Know if your Android has been Rooted

The question most people normally ask about their Android device is if it has been rooted.

Rooting your Android device gives you superuser access to your device; this means you can do almost anything with the phone which the phone will otherwise not permit.

I will quickly show you two major ways you can check if your phone is rooted or not.

METHOD 1
1. Open your app drawer by clicking on its icon.
2.Look for an app called Superuser or SuperSU. Either app will be installed during the rooting process; which one is on a rooted Android depends on the device. If either of these apps is on your device, it is rooted.

Superuser can temporarily block root access, while SuperSU has the ability to unroot a device and then remove itself. So if your device lacks any of this two apps, it means your Android phone is not rooted.

METHOD 2
Visit Google play and search for either Connect Bot Or Root Checker. Better still, run the app on your device and read through the instructions carefully; you will be prompted with the text entry and if you see this sign (#), then your device is rooted but if you see sign like the dollar ($) your device is not rooted.

Try entering the command "su" (without the quotes), you might see a dialog asking for permission from the SuperUser app, which you can safely grant. If the prompt changes to the (#) sign, your android has been rooted.
