Hide your IP
SocksCap is an application wrapper developed by NEC. SocksCap enables the Internet applications to run through a socks server so that the server end of the application can't know your real IP address. SocksCap does not require modifications to the Winsock applications or the Winsock stacks. On a SOCKS enabled firewall SocksCap offers a client-only solution. Socks is now owned by Permeo.
