Hello. I have just installed Charon and found some Anonymous Proxy servers and imported that list into Firefox's SwitchProxy extension.
This is pretty neat and seem work well. I can have it switch my proxy server at specific intervals.

I understand that when I'm surfing using Firefox that I'm now using a proxy and my IP address is different than what it really is.

What I don't understand is, is it limted to web browsing with Firefox? Or is my machine (behind my router) being seen as a proxy IP address no matter what software I use - IE, BitTorrent, etc.
