Hiding your IP address with Firefox involves using proxies. Proxies act as the middlemen when you are surfing the Internet. They get you to the website you are trying to visit. If the website blocks your access because of your IP address, the proxy steps in. The proxy displays no IP address or a generic IP address. When the site sees this, you are allowed access to the website. Proxies can be added in the connection setting of Firefox, or you can add a plug-in to automate the proxy process. Writer Bio
