I use a SOCKS proxy located in Spain. Testing it gives "Proxy Server Not Detected."

Fine. Except the IP it shows for me is *totally* different! It's not even my real one either. It's located in England and is called "U-NET INTERNAL."

Where does this come from? I have never entered this IP in my browser or anywhere else.

Every page I go to, the Spain proxy appears in the browser progress window. But test results--and even email I send--has the England IP!

I'm on AOL in the USA and a long time user of proxies. I've never seen this before.

BTW I get the same results every test site I try.

Any s***estions will be appreciated!
