Hello is there a way to downbload torrents with uTorrent without my real ip address can be seen?
I mean by using proxies or Tor or somenting.

I mean a way to encrypt network traffic behidn proxies or by sing the Tor anonymity service so even my ISP wont know what iam downloading!

That Wont Hide your real Ip but will encrypt your connection so that no one knows whats being downloaded or uploaded

EDIT
If you hide your ip with proxy or VPN then you wont get good speed your speed will be considerably reduced

If you want to hide all network traffic then i suppose the best way is to use a VPN (virtual private network) software this will encrypt all your connections and hide your real ip but downloading and uploading speed will depend on the VPN servers and service so you have to choose wisely
Test before you buy any VPN since there are loads of it out there

Can you explain to me please how VPN service works?

Any outgoing http/ftp/mail/torrent xonnextion gets encrypter by the VPN software and then after reaches the VPN servers gets un-encrypted and then the VPN server sends/receives information back to me hence its ip address is shown as request?

Is that how it works?

Here's some info on that, as far as I know all the good ones you have to pay for.
Personally I encrypt my connection like lion already posted and I use a blocklist manager and peerblock.


EDIT:
I also never check any of the boxes below other than the one highlighted since I mainly use private trackers which are more safer.

What your looking for is a VPN. Two of the best are http://www.bolehvpn.net/ & https://mullvad.net/en/ about $5 a month and both are highly respected in the VPN community.

NO!!!! Certainly not! They keep logs for 2 years on users and have a history of co-operating with the FBI!

As I said go for BolehVPN or Mullvad you will be safe with them.
