Re: How to change your ip address

I don't understand why switching to a proxy still gives you a vigin IP address it doesn't make any sense...

this clearly shows host as virgin media, if you use a proxy it will show a host of the proxy not your ISP, otherwise it wouldn't make sense to use proxies at all...
