[squid-users] Squid for Anonymizing: Squid does not hide IP address

Hello

To be able to hide IP address of different ISPs I use I have installed a
squid cache on one of my dedicated servers. I have also activated
authentication on it to avoid abuse.

Now that I test it it is working as expected (authenticates, gives back
error pages when host is not found etc.) but it does not hide my local IP
address. I tested it by posting on one of my own forums and it logs my local
IP address instead of squid's IP address.

Is there away to change configuration so that it can hide my real IP
address?

Regards,
Mac

This is my config file: (squid.conf)
