    Are there any foreign sites like http://www.the-cloak.com that allow you to surf by proxy? I want to test my YPN ads geotargetting.

    Go to www.freeproxy.ru for a complete list of proxies. The only issue is that they do not say 100% where they are all from. You will have to Who is them. I know that www.anonymouse.ws is in UK. At least he had it there.

    Good luck.

    Look at their script. It should have a button to check that says enable/disable ads or something similar. My proxies have that feature, but mine are U.S. based.

    Yeah, I've seen many proxies with options. anonymouse has none. I guess I just have to trust that phpadsnew is doing it's job.

    Thanks dude.

    This would make a great little niche site. A site where you can choose what country you would like to proxy surf from. Someone should start a site like this and promote it as a way for YPN and other publishers to test their geotargetting. Right now the all of the, except one, working surf anonymously sites are all US based.

    just change the geotargeting for a moment, to disallow the country you are coming from... refresh the web page, and the ads should not show up... change the geotargeting back, refresh the pages, and you should see your ads.
