Make US websites think your in the US? Answered

I have a problem, im in South Korea but i would like to watch King of the Hill on Fox.com. Fox says i cant because im not located in the US. Other cartoon sites say the same thing. Is there a way i can change my computer settings so i can watch my favorite American Cartoons?

You can try routing through an American proxy, but the connection speed will be MUCH slower..... another way is to download (if it's tv cartoons?) them from the BitTorrent network.....

sorry my comment is tardy i was busy last week. i did try the proxy but it was too slow on some sites and it didnt work well with cookies or something like that on other sites bittorrent seems logical but somebody (i think my ISP) keeps kicking my computer off the internet when i use it

For bittorrent, try using encryption (under Speed Guide in uTorrent) ...
