Not exactly what I am looking for. Are there other ways to use a remote proxy server?

Why do you wish to run through a proxy server anyway?

I heard you can surf anonymously through one. Is that true.

glc1 - whats your opinion on them?

No problem B

I don't know much about the anonymous proxy surfing. I have heard mixed reviews. It would seem to me that it would slow down your connection a bit,, but I am not sure

I believe you are referring to one of those sites where you enter a url and visit it via the third party site.

I wouldn't run through a proxy. It's essentially just caches sites and searches the cache for a site before making an external request (and using more bandwidth). Some provider's use them to decrease bandwidth costs.
