How to use a Proxy on a Browser

What is a proxy? In short words, a proxy is an ip that you can use to hide your real ip. Many web browsers such as google chrome, Internet explorer, firefox, etc have proxy options. If you don't want to expose your real ip to any public forums, websites, etc, then I highly suggest using a proxy. When using proxies, sometimes your browser can load the web pages slow and that's because every proxy ip is different and they're located in a different country and/or state. To simply add the proxy to your browser, i recommend going to hidemyass.com. When you're on, untick (uncheck) the protocol Socks 4/5, and for the Speed and Connection time, uncheck slow, & medium on both sections (speed and connection time) and click update result. After that, go to your browser settings>internet options/proxy>and copy the IP and the port that you see on the hidemyass.com's website. Once done, click apply on the proxy settings and then your hide will be using the new ip from the proxy.

note: Using a browser proxy WILL not hide your ip when using another program such as games, etc and/or other browsers.
