Spamming is illegal and I hate it, don`t get me wrong.
Thanks if you can help me even by private message if links are not allowed on this forum.

Software alone cannot hide an IP address. Every http request requires a valid address to send the data to. In other words, a proxy server is required to hide an IP address. Additional software may be used in conjunction with a proxy server.
A Google search on proxy servers, etc. should point you in the right direction.

how to find the real IP
If anyone gives you a fake IP address, where exactly do you think the return packets would be going to? Which leads directly to, how would a TCP handshake ever complete, in which case, HTTP never really becomes involved.
Further, what's your definition of "anonymous" IP address? They aren't floating around in the ether for the taking -- they're assigned by an authorizing agency. Give me an IP address and I can find the authorizing agency and, if they are so inclined to share (or legally obligated to share), track that right back to your little self.
A random AOL dial-up account opened with a stolen credit card, or piggybacking on unsecure WiFi access points is probably about as anonymous as you're going to get these days.
You can't chose the IP address (it'll be from their range) but it won't be yours, so whatever privileged behavior you are trying to suppress when the server sees your IP address will be suppressed, and you should see what a visitor sees.
