IE doesn't indicate that I'm using a proxy server, so now I wonder what is a
transparent proxy? I've run the tests at both ShieldsUp!& Sygate, no one
ever detects my IP. Is this good? I guess I wonder if they checked the right
IP would they then be able to get in? All tests indicate that I am either
blocked and/or stealthed. The more I learn, the less I know!
