Use Web Proxies
One of the most common and easiest ways to hide your IP address is to use a web proxy.
Some of the most popular, and better web proxies are:

Please use these sites at your own risk!
Connect to a VPN Network
By connecting to a VPN network such as your workplace or educational institute, when you browse the internet, your external IP address would be the place to which you are connected to. Once you connect to a VPN network, the rules of what you can do on the network will depend on the network you connect to. For example, they may block access to torrents and adult materials through their internet server.
So that is an overview on how you can mask yourself and use a fake IP address. However, please be very careful when you use these services, especially from other websites as you do not know what malicious code they may have put on their sites.
In Firefox: Tools ““> Options ““> Advance ““> Network ““> Settings
Then just select Manual proxy configuration and enter the proxy IP address in HTTP Proxy and the Port number. Hit OK.
In Internet Explorer: Tools ““> Internet Options ““> Connections ““> LAN Settings. Tick Use a proxy server for your LAN and enter the Address and Port number.
Hit OK. Once that is done, you can go to CanYouSeeMe and check that your IP is different to the one before you made the changes.
If you use a proxy, which one do you use? please tell us in the comments.
