    I am going to be heading to France in a couple of days to watch the EURO's with the family. I haven't been there in awhile and I don't know about the Internet access. So I was wondering, is their a way, and if so what program, for me to use my IP or computer in the States as a proxy while I am in France?

    Thanks

    Assuming your home pc is set up correctly as a proxy server, you don't need any special software. Go to Tools/Options/Preferences in any web browser, look for a setting under advanced/network/connections, proxy server, enter your IP address & port #. Once completed, your connection will be like:

    [browser]=============[home]================[internet]

    In fact, I am using this for forums except the home is a remote proxy server. Is your pc set up as a proxy server?

    No, but I assumed a program existed where I can turn it into a proxy server.

    Appreciate the response.
