| Can one actually hide one's IP address in a Java Applet, say for example, when playing Party Poker? |

| sure, you just need to tell your java vm to use a proxy server. Just look for it in the Java options... To find a suitable anonymous proxy server you can use http://www.proxyswitcher.com/ |

| Most networks will instantly ban you if you use an open proxy. Also, using an open proxy is illegal in most countries. |

Well networks have to detect a proxy first... as far as I know they mostly check for socks proxy, not a http proxy  Also why would it would be illegal if you are not breaking any laws. |

| Most check for both. Most knowledgeable ones use BOPM which will catch you. |

open proxies are illegal because they are insecure and any user/"attacker" can connect to that machine running the open proxy and gather all kinds of personal and or just regular data |

Open proxies are proxy servers running on remote hosts that use proxies to network. Proxies are what was used before routers were popular (correct me if I'm wrong about that). Basically using an open proxy is bad because you are using the owner's internet connection without their consent. That is why it is illegal. |

Who said you aren't breaking any laws? Certainly not me. Allow me to provide an analogy, I decide to leave the door to my house unlocked. Does this give you the right to walk in and spend the night there? No. That'd be trespassing.
Now, I decide to leave my proxy open. Does this give you the right to connect to my machine and use it? No. That'd be electronic intrusion. |

| Because you can do it doesn't mean it's right.. If you plan to connect to a network via a proxy you should alert the staff of your intentions atleast. |

Why not just pay for access to a closed proxy and then you never have to worry. |
