RE: Internet Security - Computer information hidden?
If you're worried about your IP getting out, get off the internet. Whenever you download (including forum sigs and avs) the owner of the website can easily see your IP. Joining an IRC network like EFNet gives your IP (well, your host which can be used to find your IP) to anyone in the channel that you join. It's inevitable that people will find your IP. So have fun living behind a proxy.
