When you request a page from a website, that website needs to have your ip so it knows where to send the page you requested. Now there is such a thing a proxy server. Although I've never used one. Your info goes through their ip address so the website only sees their website ip. Then their website forwards it back to your ip. But you don't get to pick the number that the website see's there either.
