Anonymizer sites access the Internet on your behalf, protecting your personal information from
disclosure. An anonymizer protects all of your computer’s identifying information while it surfs for
you, enabling you to remain at least one step removed from the sites you visit.
You can visit Web sites without allowing anyone to gather information on sites visited by you.
Services that provide anonymity disable pop-up windows and cookies, and conceal visitor’s IP
address.
These services typically use a proxy server to process each HTTP request. When the user
requests a Web page by clicking a hyperlink or typing a URL into their browser, the service
retrieves and displays the information using its own server. The remote server (where the
requested Web page resides) receives information on the anonymous Web surfing service in
place of your information.
