Have you ever tried to watch a video on the internet and waited for the video to load just to get a message saying "Sorry this video is not available in your region"? I am in Canada, but I watch American programming, but if I miss an episode there are no sites that legally put these shows up for streaming for Canadian residence.
For example, FOX (http://www.fox.com) puts the latest episode(s) of their top shows up on their site for streaming. The only restriction is that these videos are only viewable to US residence. So somehow we have to trick the site into thinking we are trying to watch from within the US. How do we do that? The answer lies in changing our Proxy Server.

How To View Regional Specific Content From Outside That Region

To change your proxy server for IE, just follow the following steps:
Go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Go to "Connections" Tab
-> Press the "LAN Settings" found at the bottom
-> In the "Proxy Server" Area, Check "Use Proxy Server for your LAN" the place where you input your proxy IP and port will be enabled
-> Input your chosen proxy IP and port
-> Check "Bypass proxy server for local addresses
-> Press "OK"
You can get different free proxy servers from the following websites:
