- What is an IP?
An IP is an abbreviation of Internet Protocol. IP serves a role of a computer identification number that is assigned by a network it's connected to. Without an IP address networking would not be possible.
- Why is my IP address changing from time to time?
Every time you establish a new connection to your Internet Service Provider (also know as ISP), the ISP's network assigns an individual IP number to your computer in order to provide you with the data your computer requests from web servers.
- What about my privacy?
When you connect to your ISP's network, your physical location is registered, thus making it possible for authorities to trace your computer's location. Using free tools like TraceMyIp.org, it's possible for virtually anyone to approximate your physical IP's location.
- Who can see my IP address?
When you send emails, post on forums, or use instant messengers, for example, your computer's IP is logged by the network receiving communication requests. This is an essential step that cannot be avoided and contributes to various technial and privacy aspects.
- What can be done to protect my IP privacy?
It is possible to hide an IP address by using a private Proxy server. This helps to conseal your private information.
- What is a Proxy Server?
A Proxy server is a network service which utilizes a dedicated computer on a remote network allowing users such as yourself to make indirect connections to other computers / websites using its own network connection. When using a Proxy server, the recipient of your communications will see an IP address of the Proxy server and not yours. This, however, is not a bullet-proof method.
- Is there a risk using a Proxy Server?
Absolutely. Using an anonymous computer to hide your IP presents a more serious threat to the information leak. Since all the data has to pass through that Proxy server, any information you transmit through that server can be intercepted, including your login and password information for the web services used.
