Well, in this circumstance, you can’t ignore them completely because of the importance; therefore, you have to keep alert your smartphone to receive those items notifications. After all, if you get anonymous or telemarketing types of message, which is drawing your attention while working, then it would be an over-annoying moment at your work time. 

However, these all are kinds of similar cases we face usually in our professional as well as personal life.

It has developed by “XDA member greenday123” to make your working life easier and more comfortable.

Types of Proxy | Hide IP Address

A proxy server acts as an interface between the user and the internet if you want to Change your IP Address.

Don’t know what is IP Address?

Read: What is IP Address

Now I’ll come to the heart of the post, which contains the answer to your curious question How to Hide the IP address ? The only solution to hide your IP address is by using a Proxy Server. But Wait! The story doesn’t end here. Even though proxy servers are the only way to hide your IP address, there are several ways of connecting your PC to the proxy server. Before setting up the connection with the proxy servers you must know some information about different types of proxy servers and their uses.

1. Transparent Proxy Server

This type of proxy server identifies itself as a proxy server and also makes the original IP address available through the http headers. These are generally used to speedup the web browsing since thay have a very good ability to cache websites. But they do not conceal the IP of it’s users. It is widely known as transparent proxy because it will expose your real IP address to the web. This type of proxy server does not hide your IP address.

2. Anonymous Proxy Server

This type of proxy server identifies itself as a proxy server, but does not make the original IP address available. This type of proxy server is detectable, but provides reasonable anonymity for most users. This type of proxy server will hide your IP address.

3. Distorting Proxy Server

This type of proxy server identifies itself as a proxy server, but make an incorrect original IP address available through the http headers. This type of proxy server will hide your IP address.

4. High Anonymity Proxy Server (Elite Proxy)

This type of proxy server does not identify itself as a proxy server and does not make available the original IP address. This type of proxy server will hide your IP address.So this is the best way to mask your IP.

Which Proxy Server is the best to Hide My IP ?

I know, you can answer this question better than me.Obviously High Anonymity Proxy or Elite Proxy is the best to hide your IP. But it’s not easy to get a list of working elite proxies. If you search the Google, you will definitely get tons of proxy list. You’ll get a list of proxies in the following format

IP:Port Number

Eg: 221.90.45.67:8080 (221.90.45.67 is the IP of the proxy server and 8080 is the port number)

But most of them don’t work. Here are some of the problems/risks associated with using free proxies that are available on the internet.

• Most of them do not work since the proxy servers frequently changes it’s IP/Port number.
• Even if you find a working proxy server it may be too slow.
• Your privacy is not guaranteed since all your traffic is routed through the proxy server.
• The administrators of the proxy servers may steal your valuable information such as passwords, SSN (Social security number), Credit Card details etc.

So with all these being the risks then how to find a working, fast ,highly anonymous and secured Proxy servers?

Now I will share the software that works like charm to change the email accounts.

Hide My Ass pro Vpn is the best proxy server out there. I personally loved it.

How to ensure that the IP is hidden ?

Before you hide your IP you can check your real IP by visiting the following site.

WhatIsMyIPAddress.Com

Once you get your real IP, switch on your IP hiding software. Now once again visit the above site and check your IP address. If you see a new IP then this means that your software is doing the right job. Also the above site(Whatismyipaddress.com) is capable of detecting many proxies. If you see the words such as “suspected proxy server or network sharing device” or similar words then it means that the proxy you are using is not an Elite Proxy.

One Final Word before you leave! Even though Elite proxies are almost undetectable they can be detected at a higher level. But the process would be much harder and time consuming than free proxies. So only high end elite proxies are recommended by us.

One More thing, it is unsafe to use free proxy during e-commerce transactions such as Online banking, Online Credit Card payment etc. So please avoid free proxies during these circumstances and use elite proxies (like hide my ass pro vpn) only if required.

I Hope this post helped you to learn about the types of proxy servers and how to hide ip address to a great extent.

Feel free to pass on comments.

How Firewalls Work

If you have been using Internet on a regular basis or working in a large company and surf the Internet while you are at work, you must have surely come across the term firewall.

You might have also heard of people saying “firewalls protect their computer from web attacks and hackers” or “a certain website has been blocked by firewall in their work place”. If you have ever wondered to know what exactly is this firewall and how it works, here we go. In this post I will try to explain “How firewalls work” in a layman’s terms.

How Firewalls Work?

Firewalls are basically a barrier between your computer (or a network) and the Internet (outside world). A firewall can be simply compared to a security guard who stands at the entrance of your house and filters the visitors coming to your place. He may allow some visitors to enter while denying others whom he suspects of being intruders. Similarly a firewall is a software program or a hardware device that filters the information (packets) coming through the Internet to your personal computer or a computer network.

Decrease The Shutdown Time In Windows

Whenever you give the shutdown command in your Windows PC, it forwards the request to all the running services. It waits before it tells you if any of the service did not respond to the shutdown request (waits for 12 seconds in Windows 7 and 6 seconds in Windows 8). You can then force stop them or wait for them to respond. But if you have many services running, then 12 seconds for each service is much time to wait for.

Different Types of Malware and How They Work

Malware is a collective term used to represent virus, worms, spyware and other malicious programs out there on the Internet. In simple words, any software program that is intended to cause direct or indirect harm to the computer system is referred to as a malware.

Some malware programs cause serious problems such as destroying the system files, causing disruption to the computer operation or gathering sensitive information while others may only have a light impact such as redirecting websites to pornographic content or annoying the users with pop-ups and banners.

In the normal routine, we have often seen every malicious program being referred to as a virus, but this is not correct! In fact, as mentioned earlier, there exists several malicious programs where virus is one among them. Now, many of you may may be wondering to know what’s the difference between them. Well, this article gives a detailed information on different types of malware that exist, how they work and how they differ from each other:

1. Computer Virus:

As we all know, this is the type of malware that has become highly popular and is one of the most widely discussed topic in the field of computer security. A virus is just a computer program that is designed to take unauthorized control of the infected computer so as to cause harm to the system’s data or degrade it’s performance.

Mode of operation:

Computer viruses operates by attaching themselves to an already existing file or program and replicates itself to spread from one computer to another. In most cases, they tend to infect executable files that are parts of legitimate programs. So, whenever the infected file is executed on a new computer, the virus gets activated and begins to operate by further replication or causing the intended damage to the system.

A virus cannot perform it’s task of harming and replication unless it is allowed to execute. This is the reason why viruses often choose an executable file as it’s host and get attached to them. Viruses are mainly classified into two types:
