I live in Romania, but speak English as my first language, and there are some websites that I can't access because It says I don't live in the US. The question is, how do I make any web browser (I will download whichever) think that I am in the US. Any help would be appreciated.

You can change your computer settings, go to Control panel/language and region configuration and there change the country and language Because some websites access to your system information about country and language, that's why some webs doesn't let you go in

It really has nothing, or not much, to do with the browser, it comes down to the IP Address that your ISP is providing you with which is then detected by A website that you're trying to log into, for example: If i try to go onto NBC.com to check out a re-run of a show like "The Office" or something similar, it wont allow me to do so due to the fact that their system has detected that i live somewhere else besides the US (Mexico btw). So the way around this is through a proxy server, a proxy server will simulate your IP address fooling A Website system into thinking that you're actually in the US, thus letting you watch any website within the US with an IP Block. This is the same for other websites and not just US sites, you'll need another proxy that will simulate you being in the UK if you want to see BBC programming. Proxy is a bit tedious but once you get familiar with its function, it becomes pretty standard, my best suggestion would be to get Firefox and download the plugging "Foxy Proxy" which will let you configure a proxy server within your browser, though you'll still have to google for a Proxy IP Address, which you can find very easily, the problem is finding a Proxy IP Address that actually works since many of them seem to be down. There are websites that can actually hide your IP address from a website that's looking for it to grant you access onto the site, this are very common in work places where the servers usually have sites like facebook or myspace blocked to avoid their employees from accessing this sites. Websites like hidemyass.com is one of them free hide-my-ip-address type of service, there are lots more on the internet. Hope that helps.
