Web sites get the IP address of any proxy or browser they serve pages to. If you run the proxy on your own computer the IP address disclosed is the same as your browser would, unless you use the forwardfile option is used to chain to another proxy, in which case servers only get the last IP address in the chain. Chaining slightly slows browsing of course, but it improves anonymity. One public proxy that you can forward to is lpwa.com port 8000. Read about its privacy-enhancing features and the authentication procedures first, and note that it blocks referer in almost all cases, as well as some other headers.
