How to Use a Proxy Server

August 19th, 2009



Find yourself wondering how to use a proxy server? If you are unable to access a website at work or school, you may be looking for ways to use a proxy server. Using a proxy server is relatively simple. If your proxy server is already setup, just follow the steps below and you’ll be using your proxy to surf the internet in no time.

The first and main thing you need to do use your proxy is configure your web browser correctly. There are many different kinds of web browsers on the market, but they all function basically in the same way. If you go to Internet Settings -> Options settings you should be able to find a section devoted to entering in your proxy server details. You’ll need to know the proxy server IP and proxy server port (maybe even the login and password if that is how your proxy has been setup). Just type in this information and your computer is now setup to use your proxy.

With your web browser configured properly, it is time to test your proxy. How can you know if you are surfing the internet via a proxy? The best way to do this is to turn off the proxy (simple disable it using the above steps) and then visit http://www.whatismyipaddress.com or any other website that shows your IP online. Write down the IP shown on this website, turn on your proxy and then refresh the page. If your web browser is setup correctly you’ll see that the IP should change to something different and you know everything is working as it should.

Setting up your computer to access your proxy is usually very simple. Just check your web browser network options area and you’ll see where to type in your proxy server details.

Use A Proxy Server

August 13th, 2009



You can use a proxy server for many things on the internet. The main reason for people wanting to use a proxy is because they want to hide their IP online or remain anonymous. IPs are how computers are tracked or located on the internet, so the only way you can stop people from finding you is by changing or hiding your IP. Through the use of a proxy server you are able to stop people from finding you and this makes you anonymous.

Proxies work by acting as a go between for any data that is transferred through them. If you use a proxy server to surf the internet, you actually connect first to the proxy then use it to do all your web surfing with. This allows you to be anonymous because if anyone sees you surfing their website the only IP they can see is the IP of the proxy. They can’t see past the proxy so have no idea that someone is controlling the proxy.

Proxy servers have their own IPs and this is what makes you anonymous with a proxy. Not all proxies are equal and the best kind are elite proxies. Elite proxies provide 100% anonymity and they can cloak or mask themselves so even if someone examines the IPs on your elite proxy they have no way of knowing it is a proxy server. This makes you look like an average Joe surfing the internet.

If you use a proxy server you can change your IP and be 100% anonymous online. Elite proxies are the best way to do this.

Private Proxy Server – Why Use A Private Proxy Server?

July 28th, 2009



There is a good chance you may have used a proxy server before, but what about a private proxy server? Proxy servers are available on the internet in many different flavours, but just how they perform and whether or not they hide your true identity can differ greatly from proxy server to proxy server. A private proxy offers you the best that proxy servers have to offer.

A private proxy server is exactly that, private. They are most often used by only 1 person, or only a handful at the most. Making a proxy server private has many added benefits. The first and most important is speed. Free proxies, or public proxies, are more often than not used by hundreds or thousands of people at the same time. This usually means that using a public proxy server to surf the internet is as bad as if not worse than using a dialup modem to surf the internet. The speed is painfully slow and they can sometimes stop working altogether. With only a handful or just one person using a proxy server, you can surf the internet at high speed and find yourself forgetting that you are even using a proxy server.

The best way to get a 100% private proxy server is to setup one up yourself. Managing and setting up a proxy server is much easier than you may think and by doing so you have complete control over your proxy. No longer will you have to worry about finding fresh lists of proxies or even working proxies.

If you are looking for proxy servers online, then a private proxy is the best choice of them all. Setting up your own private proxy gives you a super fast and very reliable proxy that you can use anytime you want to remain anonymous online.
