The key is, the PROXY knows your IP address. Everyone else just sends it to the proxy, and they think that is probably you, but they might have a hard time telling that the proxy is actually working for a different computer.
Without a seperate computer running proxy routing software, or a hardware router , you can't really hide your IP address in an effective manner.
