PROXY FINDER

What is Proxy Finder?
Proxy Finder searches for HTTP proxy lists, HTTPS proxy lists and SOCKS (SOCKS4, SOCKS4A, SOCKS5, SOCKS5 with Authentication) proxies lists on the Internet. You should specify proxy web site URL(s) where proxy lists are located and Proxy Finder will automatically find proxy servers information. Then proxy/proxies are added to the program proxy list. Also some proxy finders can check added proxies on fly or by your request. Usually proxies can be checked for proxy state, proxy speed, proxy location and proxy anonymity.
Most proxy finder tools allow you to:
- Scan proxy web sites and extract HTTP proxy lists, HTTPS proxy list and SOCKS proxies list
- Recognize different proxy list formats
- Import/export proxy lists
- Search proxies from certain countries
- Extract proxies from different proxy lists simultaneously
- Automatically search for proxies using scheduler

Proxy servers : Anonymous proxy servers
|
Anonymous proxy servers
Anonymous proxy servers hide your IP address saving you from vulnerabilities concerned with it. So you can safely surf the web and your information will never be used by hackers and spammers.
Sometimes you may encounter problems while accessing to web server when server administrator restricted access from your IP or even from wide IP range (for example restricting access from certain countries or geographical regions). You can try to access those pages using an anonymous proxy server.

Why you should use proxy servers
Proxy servers accumulate and save files that are most often requested by thousands of Internet users in a special database, called cache. Therefore, proxy servers are able to increase the speed of your connection to the Internet. The cache of a proxy server may already contain information you need by the time of your request, making it possible for the proxy to deliver it immediately.

What is a proxy server?
A proxy server is a kind of buffer between your computer and the Internet resource(s) you are accessing. The data you request come to the proxy first, and only then it transmits the data to you. A proxy server receives a request for an Internet service (such as a web page request) from a user. If the proxy server is also a cache server, it can use its local cache of previously downloaded web pages to provide the page without forwarding the request to the Internet. If the page is not in the cache, the proxy server uses one of its own IP addresses to request the page from the server on the Internet. When the page is returned, the proxy server relates it to the original request and forwards it to the user.

Why use anonymous proxy servers
When you surf the Internet, web sites collect and record usage information about your computer such as your IP address, browser type, operating system you are using, web pages last visited, etc. This information automatically comes from your browser to identify you and track your browsing habits and activities.
Your IP can be used to determine your location (your country, city and even physical address). Hackers, identity thieves and spammers can use this information to track your web usage and profile your browsing habits, steal personal information, spy upon you and send you spam and junk e-mails.
Anonymous proxy servers hide your IP address.
Transparent proxy servers
Transparent proxy servers are not anonymous. They don't hide IP-address of a client and let a web server know that you are surfing through a proxy server. The task of such proxies, as a rule, is information caching and/or support of Internet access for several computers via single connection. Such proxies are not applicable for security and privacy while surfing on net. You can use them only for network speed improvement.
Anonymous proxy servers
Anonymous proxy servers don't show your real IP but change the request fields so it is very easy to detect that you are using proxy.
High anonymous proxy servers
High anonymous proxy servers do not pass an IP-address of a client and don't send any variables indicating that you are using proxy server to host and look like real browser.
What is HTTP proxy server?
HTTP proxy server is a proxy allowing working on the Internet with HTTP and (not always) FTP protocols. It can carry out caching of information downloaded from the Internet.
Now HTTP proxy servers are the most widespread. Their support (ability to use them) is included into many programs: browsers, download managers etc. However, their support is not realized at a level of an operating system - in order to use them, you should configure all programs, which should use proxies, in an appropriate way.

Proxy Checker - automatically parses proxy lists and generates detailed information about proxy server response time, proxy location, proxy type, proxy anonymity and functionality. So you can easily choose the proxy/proxies you want.
Most Proxy Checkers allows you to:
- Check proxies simultaneously
- Check HTTP proxy lists, HTTPS proxy list, SOCKS4, SOCKS5 proxy server lists
- Supports multithreading to check proxy list faster
- Check proxy server speed
- Check proxy anonymity (anonymous proxy, high anonymous proxy, transparent proxy)
- Check proxy server location
- Check proxies functionality
- Import and export proxy list

Every time you surf the web you are subject to different Internet risks including hackers, identity thieves, spammers and other people who want to get access to your computer and monitor your activities
Do you know ...
Your computer tracks everything you are doing while using the computer or surfing the Internet
... Your online and offline activities are not private as surfing tracks, cache, downloaded files and some identifying data is stored on your computer.
... Some tracks of computer and Internet activity can't be removed manually without special tracks eraser software.
If you don't protect your information, your surfing habits and private information could be tracked and stolen. You may compromise your privacy and even become a victim of identify theft.
Privacy eraser software will keep your private information by deleting history that is collected on your computer while surf the web: a history of the web sites you have visited, images and movies you have seen, files you downloaded, documents and files you have just opened, cookies that web sites store on your computer, emails, passwords and logins you use to access various accounts over the web, your credit card number and other confidential information.
