Elite Proxy Server Anonymity Online – Why They Are The Best Proxies

Seeking a HTTP Proxy? It isn’t always easy to be truly anonymous online and protect your real identity. Being anonymous online is done using a proxy server, but there lies the problem. The main reason for this is because there are many different kinds of proxy servers. Of all the proxy servers you can use, nothing compares to a http proxy when it comes to protecting yourself on the internet.

HTTP Proxy Servers work by transferring data back to your computer while you are web surfing. The proxy server is the machine that does the web surfing. So, the IP shown is the IP of the proxy and not your personal computer. So, if someone looks at your IP while you are surfing their website, they can only see the proxy server IP and with a http proxy they can’t even tell you have changed your IP.

Elite proxies are the absolute best of all the different kinds of proxy servers because they are completely anonymous and secure. While using a http proxy not only are you 100% anonymous, but IPs coming from a http proxy are cloaked and no-one can tell they are proxy IPs. No-one can detect you have changed your IP. If someone can tell you have changed your IP you aren’t really anonymous. If you are serious about being anonymous online and HTTP Proxies, elite proxies are the only choice. The speed, anonymity and ability for IPs to be cloaked so you look like any other average Joe on the internet makes them the absolute best proxy solution.

Just how can you get a proxy server of your own? There are actually a couple of different ways to get proxies. The first involves looking for free proxies and the second method is the opposite and involves paying. Finding free proxies on the internet isn’t hard, but the problem is that they aren’t reliable. Slow and nonresponsive free proxies are very common and this is the main reason why paid proxies actually make sense.

Paid proxies are actually much cheaper than you may think. For as little as USD a month you can have a complete proxy server setup all of your own. There are many reasons why you may need your own private proxy. You’ll get completely anonymity with a paid proxy, something free proxies usually fail to deliver. Paid proxies won’t suddenly stop working like free ones. If you have ever spent time looking for proxies, then you probably already know how much trouble it can be. Stop wasting time and money and just setup your own proxy. You’ll be amazed at just how much better they arethank yourself that you did.

Setting up your own HTTP Proxy is super easy. Use it for your HTTP Proxies needs or as a simple yet powerful HTTP Proxy Server.

What Is A HTTP Proxy Server And Why They Are Completely Anonymous

Want a HTTP Proxy? Being anonymous online can sometimes be difficult. Anyone can be anonymous on the internet with a proxy, but there lies the problem. This stems from there being a lot of different kinds of proxy servers and each of them differs greatly. If you want to change your IP online and be completely anonymous, then the only solution for you is a http proxy.

HTTP Proxy Servers work by transferring data back to your computer while you are web surfing. The web surfing is really done with the proxy. So, the IP shown is the IP of the proxy and not your personal computer. So, if someone looks at your IP while you are surfing their website, all they can see is the IP of the proxy server and with a http proxy they can’t even tell you have changed your IP.

When it comes to proxies, elite proxies are the best because they offer the highest level of anonymity possible from a proxy. While using a http proxy not only are you 100% anonymous, but the IPs they give you look like any normal IP found online and not a proxy IP. There is no way to tell you are using a proxy server. There is no use in changing your IP if someone can tell you have done it. If you are serious about being anonymous online and HTTP Proxies, you can’t get any better than a http proxy. They offer the highest levels of anonymity, speed and IPs being completely cloaked is the reason why elite proxies are the best.

Getting your own proxy server isn’t as hard as it may sound Here are two of the most popular proxy solutions people use. The first method is basically using free proxies found on the internet and the second method is not free and costs money. Free proxies can be easily found online, but the problem is that they aren’t reliable. Slow and nonresponsive free proxies are very common and this is why anyone who is serious about setting up their own proxy servers really needs to consider paying for it.

Your own paid proxy server isn’t expensive. For as little as USD a month you can have your own http proxy server that no-one else but you has access to. There are many reasons why you may need your own private proxy. Unlike free proxies which are often not secure or anonymous, paid proxies are totally secure. Paid proxies won’t suddenly stop working like free ones. If you have ever tried to find proxies for free, then you probably already realize how frustrating it can be. With private and paid proxies being so cheap, there really is no reason you can’t have your own. You’ll be glad you did.

What Is An Anonymous Proxy And Are They Really Anonymous?

An anonymous proxy just sounds so safe and secure, I’ll be completely anonymous using it and safe from censors, snoopers, hackers and identity thieves. Unfortunately that is not quite the case, it’s just a little deceptive and things are not quite what they seem. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all in favour of these proxies and in fact I use them myself but you should be quite clear on what they actually do.

When you use an anonymous proxy, your browsing session goes something like this -

You send request to proxy server, proxy server forwards that request to the web server, web server replies and proxy forwards the answer.

So the main benefit is that the web server never actually sees who is requesting the web page, the request can from the proxy server and that’s all it sees. Now this is fine and it does give you some anonymity on the web but only from the web site you are visiting.

You are still left with many privacy concerns -

1) All your browsing information on your PC – although that is easily cleared by using privacy options on your browser
2) Every web site you visit is logged at your ISP and linked to your PC
3) The proxy server has a complete log of all your browsing
4) If you browse you probably use HTTP which can be intercepted and read by anyone

There’s quite a few more but the main area of concern for me, and the reason why many people are the victims of some form of identity theft is they use free anonymous proxies that are completely unknown to them. These are often set up by hacking groups to harvest personal details (yes yours!) and steal identities. If you want to protect yourself online, never, ever use any sort of anonymous proxy which you know nothing about.

Phpproxy Servers What Are They?

May 10th, 2010 No comments

Have you ever been blocked from websites at school or work? Have you ever wondered what the sites contain that are so malicious that people will spend time working on how to stop you from looking at them. Generally speaking you are being stopped from visiting sites that are considered non-related to your computer access.

If this is happening at to you most likely the blocked sites are extremely innocuous and are probably gaming sites such as http://www.arcadethunder.com or sports sites such as http://www.espn.com or a myriad of other sites. These sites offer breaks from your daily routines and allow a little downtime, however the powers that be have deemed them inappropriate for viewership.

So what is a person to do to get around this system? Many people just rail against the establishment and proceed as normal limited by their ability to access these sites. Others have found the way around the system. They are using a system called a phpProxy. This system is simple and useful to the individual looking to by-pass the firewall that is in place limiting your ability to view the internet at your leisure.

The system simply uses another location to download all of your surfing habits onto. Simply do a search on the web and you will turn up a wealth of phpProxy sites. Once you log-into the site you will see a simple bar that looks like your toolbar. Type the web address of the site that you wish to visit into the bar. The Proxy will then serve as a “Proxy” for your local server and download the page for you. This downloaded page will be viewed through the eyes of the proxy that you are using. You should now be able to function as normal with the page that you are own as long as you stay on the Proxy server location.

This system affords you two levels of protection:

1) The site that you are visiting is cached on the phpProxy location and your local server never knows that you visited the end site. It only knows that you were at the phpProxy site.

2) Because your IP address is never divulged by the phpProxy you are not at risk for spam and viruses.

So the next time you are locked out of a favorite website at work or home simply find a favored phpProxy and dial in through it. It is a great way to avoid the issues of natively searching the internet. While protecting your local server and local computer.
