Is it the IP and hostname of the computer you are using to browse, or the IP 
and hostname of the computer you are using as your proxy (assuming they are 
different).

This is where my confusion sets in.  It looks like you don't want anyone to 
know what IP your proxy is using to talk to the outside world...  How would the 
servers you connect to know where to send responses?  In other words, if you 
are trying to do what I think you are trying to do, be happy with what you 
have, or use an anonymization service.  The IP that you are connecting from 
will still be available to that service, but (hopefully) they won't keep that 
information.
