How To Use Proxies

One of the most significant advantages of using an automated tool to locate proxy servers is that you do not have to keep editing your proxy settings manually each time you wish to try out a new one. Instead, what you do is enter ‘localhost’ or ‘127.0.0.1′ into the ‘address’ box and ‘8088′ into the ‘port’ box of your browser’s proxy settings menu and then forget about it. All future proxy switching is then orchestrated from within your proxy seeking software, which subsequently relays the information to your browser or whatever type of application you are attempting to make anonymous. For those of you who are curious ‘localhost’ and the IP address ‘127.0.0.1′ are the names by which every computer on the internet refers to itself.
