You can't fake your ip unless you use an external proxy otherwise the page
you are retrieving will go to the fake ip & you will recieve nothing. & all
those paid services thta promise to hide your ip do it thru thier dedicated
proxies and thats the only way of doing it anyway.
Curl allows the use of proxies pretty easily.
