Mask My IP 2.4.9.8

Navigating the web may leave undesired traces that compromise your security because some sites can store sensitive data about your location. In this regard, your IP is the single most important information about you. Mask My IP can protect your privacy by allowing you to use the Internet with a fake IP number.

The application has an extremely simple-to-use interface, which makes it appropriate for all types of users. All it takes to start hiding your IP is first selecting the desired fake location and then pressing the Hide IP number. The rest of the time the program will work hidden in the System Tray. Moreover, you can also adjust the program’s configuration to your own needs. For example, you can have the app start automatically when Windows starts. Likewise, you can set it to automatically change your IP at the desired frequency, which makes tracking your IP even more difficult. Finally, you can also enable the application for some of the most common browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox and Opera.

All in all, Mask My IP is an effective solution to hide your location, a result that can easily be checked online. However, you should take into account that it works by re-directing your connections via a different IP; this means that the providers of this service know your real location. Therefore, your security depends on their reliability.
