Use a proxy to fake geo-location

Sometimes there are restrictions on using web services cross country lines. One of them is the Norwegian broadcasting (nrk.no) who will only let you see some of their shows online if you are in Norway. You can solve this by using a proxy server located in Norway. If the service you want to use is in the US, you select a US proxy. Search for proxy-servers plus country in Google will help you! You change your proxy settings directly in your browser – and then the web service will detect you as being where your proxy server is located.
