Gosh just get peerguardian for your mac and add the IP Addresses of Yahoo's trackers or attempted attacks, to the blacklist and that'll keep these suckers out of your pc or able to do damage to your pc it's also used heavly by file swappers on the gnuttela networks to keep the FBI , Studio companies from snooping around at your files to see what you have to share.... Comcast is actually on the top 10 List of whom are being watched by Big Brother due to too much fileswapping on their services ;o)

I want this because I am a bit rebellious.
Yahoo is tracking people's footprints on the internet, by their IP addy. I
just want to throw a wrench in it, without having to opt out. ;o)

Your public IP will still be seen; it's simply moved to your router instead of being on your computer. It has to be - otherwise packets could never get back to you!


If you really really really want to obfuscate your public IP, then route yourself thru several open-proxy servers. That way the IP the destination (eg: Yahoo) sees has nothing to do with you. Of course, you pay a serious performance penalty for doing this, but...
