I.P. address

I hope this is the right forum to find an answer. What I am looking to do is hide my I.P. address. I live outside the U.S. and would like to watch some video, TV shows and other things over the internet. For example I would like to watch the new season of the Office on NBC. When I click on the video I get the message that I cannot watch it because my I.P. address is not in the U.S. I just want to watch the show! I have run into the same issue with Amazon. I signed up for an account and tried to purchase the last season of the office. I only purchased one episode but when I tried to watch it I could for the same reason as stated before.
There has to be a way I can get around this. I am trying to do it the legal way, buy it and watch it, or use the streaming video that is available. I guess I could always download it via torrent or other means but I do not want to. If there is not a fix now wonder all the P2P software is out there.

Re: I.P. address

Sorry, we don't help with this kind of issue. There's a reason those restrictions exist. Faking your location is no more legal than downloading pirate video.
