The number one question for concerned internet travelers who wish to surf the web anonymously is a truly perennial one: “Which is the best IP Changer to use online?”

The sad fact is, there is no answer. A fast reliable one would be the best way to go, but these appear and disappear so quickly online, it wouldn’t be worth it to recommend one. The reason is a simple, economical one: Bandwidth costs big money. Having people surf the internet through an IP changer that you set up costs a boatload, so why do people do it?

Often times, the user doesn’t realize an IP changer is set up. A change IP website could be configured by accident if a server is set up incorrectly, and an administrator would notice a large hit on the speed of his connectees…. Or a large hit on his bank account. This is a rather common mistake, but thankfully, can be fixed easily.

The next reason is a big more insidious: crime. Thieves can set up a free IP changer, and while they do incur the bandwidth expenses, they can run rampant on your bank accounts, internet passwords, and other sensitive information. These hackers could actually access an unsecured server, and set up an ip changer without the owner’s consent. Then they could reap the benefits of information, and send the bill to the unfortunate and unknowing host.

These ip changers are too dangerous to warrant their use. If you absolutely must, however, be careful what information you put into the program. Never put anything that you wouldn’t mind others seeing, and never disclose any bank, login, or password information.
