How To Find Free Proxy Lists
Elite proxy, anonymous proxy, transparent proxy, distorting proxy... There are a lot of proxy types, they differ in anonymity and therefore security. But what is the difference between an anonymous proxy and an elite proxy? What is special about a distorting proxy? How to find a free proxy list? How to find a working elite proxy? What to do if you need security on the Internet?
Thousands of users who want to remain anonymous on the Net ask themselves these questions. In this article we will try to answer these questions as clearly as possible.
What do you do when you need to find a free proxy list? How do you search for proxies?
For instance, do you search for a proxy server, an anonymous proxy, an elite proxy or a transparent proxy, or even a distorting proxy?
You are sure to go to some search engine (for example, Google) and type the phrase "free proxy list" or "elite proxy". If you need to find an anonymous proxy or a transparent proxy, you type "find anonymous proxies", "find transparent proxies".
As a result, the search engine will return you a lot of links to sites with elite proxies, anonymous proxies, but transparent proxies will be the majority. Unfortunately, many sites will have old and outdated lists of proxy servers. For example, the elite proxy you decide to use will not work and will be of no interest for you. But you need a fresh proxy list! You need a list of working proxies! You need an elite proxy server to ensure your security while you are surfing the Internet. You want to just specify an anonymous proxy in your favorite Internet browser, or Internet chat, or ICQ and go on doing your business, but with lot of difference. Now you are anonymous! Now your surfing is safer than it used to be! Using an elite proxy or an anonymous proxy, you make your computer and your home more secure than it used to be.
But where to take a free proxy list? How to find a working elite or anonymous proxy? It is very difficult to use a search engine to search for sites with proxy lists. But still more complicated is the task of finding out which of elite, anonymous or transparent proxies work, which are the fastest and most anonymous proxies.
To do it, you have to open a search engine or your favorite software catalog and find a program that checks proxy lists there. You will need some time to choose the program you want to use among all that type of software. Also, it may happen that you will need several days to study all the peculiarities of its work. It is good if the program is free or has a trial period. In many cases you will have to pay for the program at once. And all you needed was just a free proxy list. You did not want to buy and study programs you do not need. You wanted just to click a button and get an elite proxy or an anonymous proxy.
But you patiently keep on following the hard way.
You buy a proxy checker and carefully study it. Now you return to those proxy lists that you found earlier. But these proxy lists have turned very old within these several days. The life of proxy lists is very short, many of them get closed and stop functioning every day. It means that you have to open the search engine again, type "find elite proxy" or "free proxy list" again and search for new proxy lists. After that you have to save the found proxy lists. But what formats of proxy servers does your proxy checker understand? Sure it is something like "proxy:port" or "proxy port". But the found proxy lists have a lot of extra information. You will have to carefully remove this unnecessary information manually and try not to make a mistake.
And here you are - you have found lists of proxy servers, you have bought a proxy checker, you have manually turned the found proxy lists into the proxy lists that your proxy checker understands. Now you start the proxy checker and start checking which proxies among those you found work. You wait several hours, drink a lot of coffee and look for a proxy on the monitor all the time. But what do you usually see? Where are working proxies? Where are elite proxies? Where are anonymous proxies that you need? There are none. There are none at all or the proxy checker finds several proxies. What do you think at this time? Are they anonymous proxies? Are they secure proxies? Do they allow me to surf the Internet freely? You can never be sure. Because the proxy checker must have unique algorithms that allow it to determine the level of anonymity of a proxy. It should distinguish between an elite proxy and an anonymous proxy, between a transparent proxy and a distorting proxy. Indeed, that is what your security depends on.
It is just amazing how patient you are. Amazing, what a great deal of manual work you had done and what you got in the end. You will be disappointed even more when you realize that you will have to do it every time when you need a free proxy list. Each time you need an elite proxy you will have to repeat it all.
And you think that it is the 21st century out there and I cannot make my surfing secure. Is it really so that I cannot get a free proxy list with a mouse click? Where are anonymous proxies that all sites promise?
You would not believe it, but millions of people who use the Internet ask the same questions.
