I am trying to view trailers and other videos on the bbc.com website and since I am listed as being in the united states.....

I want to proxy my address so that it shows me as being in europe or the UK..

is that possible?

Thank you

Sure but a proxy may slow surfing, actually, I never noticed much slowdown when a site I used was blocked (Demonoid, temporarily after Holland) and I used a proxy. It appear's the BBC is quite zealous in excluding ip addresses so you may go through a few to find one that work's. Also, don't know if the BBC will accept an European ip, so search proxy server list in UK: http://whatismyipaddress.com/staticpages...-a-proxy-server This is an old guide but browser basic's should be the same.
