Mac vs. PC is irrelevant. Depends on how you connect to the internet. If your ISP has dynamic IP assignment, just disconnect, and then reconnect (turn off your DSL/cable modem, wait a bit, then switch it back on). Then check to see if your IP has changed (try http://www.whatismyip.com/ ). You may have to try this more than once (there is a chance that you will be reassigned the same IP address that you just gave up).
If you have a static IP address, then you will have to contact your ISP and ask for a new IP address. In this case, it is probably easier to use a proxy.

If you just need to access some websites temporarily by using a different IP address then you may do it by using proxies. You can find 100's of web proxy sites at http://www.unblocking.biz or you may use the one i use http://www.freeproxy.co.in
If in case you are looking further for changing your IP permanently and not temporary, if you have a dynamic IP you may just change it by restarting your modem or router but there's no way to get it changed if its a static Ip
