What is a proxy server?

      A proxy server is a kind of buffer between your computer and the Internet resources you are accessing. The data you request come to the proxy first, and only then it transmits the data to you.
What is an anonymous proxy server?

      Anonymous proxy servers hide your IP address and thereby prevent unauthorized access to your computer through the Internet. They do not provide anyone with your IP address and effectively hide any information about you and your reading interests. Besides that, they don’t even let anyone know that you are surfing through a proxy server. Anonymous proxy servers can be used for all kinds of Web-services, such as Web-Mail (MSN Hot Mail, Yahoo mail), web-chat rooms, FTP archives, etc.
Why do I need to use proxy servers?

      1. Transfer speed improvement. 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.
      2. Security and privacy. Anonymous proxy servers that hide your IP address thereby saving you from vulnerabilities concerned with it.
      3. 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). So you try to access those pages using an anonymous proxy server.
What is a public proxy server?

     It is a proxy server which is free and open for everybody on the Internet. Unfortunately most of them are not anonymous.

How to use

Hi there, IM JONAS


If you are reading this then
you must be wanting to surf the internet anonymously and I don't blame
youm!

 Step 1.  First things first . . you will need to
download and install Firefox if you haven't already done so.  Use
this link.  (You might want to Book-Mark this page before you start)


Browse
the web faster. Get Firefox with Google Toolbar - Right Here - It's FREE!

Come back here when you are
done.




Step 2.  Find a proxy server IP address.  You can find some
on my proxy
page or here. 
Please note that proxy servers have a habit of dissappearing from time to
time.  If you can't browse the web with one proxy IP then try
another.  A proxy IP address looks similar to this . . eg.


IP  165.228.128.11     
PORT  80

IP  192.76.71.99         
PORT  80

IP  219.141.223.198    PORT  8080

IP  200.174.85.193      PORT  3128


These are real proxy server
addresses.  I use IP 
165.228.128.11  PORT  80 in
my demonstration and it really works!



Step
3.  Below I have made an animated Gif image to simplify how to
put your proxy's IP into Firefox.  I will continually loop.

The first image tells you to Click on 'Tools'

The second image tells you to click on 'Options'

The third image tells you to click on 'Settings'

The fourth image shows you where to put the proxy server's IP and Port
numbers.  (Most Port numbers are 80)

Step 4.  After clicking OK to
accept the settings you will need to close Firefox down and restart it to
take effect.

IMPORTANT: After clicking OK to accept
the settings you will need to close Firefox down and restart it to take
effect.  I know I'm repeating myself but your proxy settings won't
work untill you restart Firefox.







 

I
hope this helps you.
