You leave trails if you go through proxies as well - just a one step longer trail.
The only secure and "trail-less" mode is using TOR or similar anonymousing networks. Not used them myself, but there will still be some trail through these networks, it will just be hard to know what was delivered and if you actually were the receiver of the content.

Anonymous proxies
I stick with anonymous proxies. There are not as many of them floating around as there used to be.
This is one website which tells you which proxies were most recently tested and found to be active. (You need to enable JavaScript to view the port numbers.)
If privacy is not as important to you - because you basically only need an I.P. Address which says you're in Japan in order to access that website, this is another web page with only Japanese proxies, anonymous and transparent. (A question mark after the level ranking indicates a transparent proxy.)
This is a cgi-bin V2.35 proxyjudge with a numeric I.P. Address. Those are good at detecting CoDeeN/PlanetLab proxies; which I urge you to not use. Those are being observed, and the websites visited tracked (for future prohibition). :warning2:
