There was a service I was looking into once called Helm that did all of the legwork for you.  It is its own box that you have at your house and connects to a VPN for in/outbound connectivity so it uses their IPs instead of your own residential ones.

Of course you have to buy their $250-$400 box and pay them $100 /year for the VPN connectivity.  Doing it yourself for $10 /year is a much better option for those with the know-how.
