Free Anonymous Proxy
What is the proxy address of the MultiProxy?
|
If you set up the MultiProxy to run locally on the computer you browse from, the proxy will be
on localhost or 127.0.0.1 (which is the special name used by every computer on the Internet to refer to itself) and the port will be 8088 (unless you have configured MultiProxy to run on a different port). So when configuring your browser's proxy settings you typically enter the word
localhost (or 127.0.0.1) in the box next to HTTP/FTP/etc.and 8088 in the box labeled "port".
If you want other computers on your LAN (without Internet access) to connect to Internet through MultiProxy, you need to enter the actual IP address of the computer where MultiProxy has been installed (instead of 127.0.0.1). You can find out the computer's IP address by running winipcfg.exe (via Start|Run from Windows taskbar, for example).
How do I configure my browser for MultiProxy?
|
All current browsers can be told the address of a proxy to use. You enter the same information in all fields in your browser's proxy configuration screen (see list
below): HTTP/FTP/etc. MultiProxy supports all protocols, but only if corresponding remote proxy server supports them too. Here are the menus you go through to get to the proxy configuration settings. Make notes on the changes you make so you know how to undo them!

you connect to the Internet), press Settings. Check the "Use Proxy Server" box-- enter

Note: You must also uncheck the "Use HTTP 1.1" and "Use HTTP 1.1 through proxy connections" checkboxes in the Advanced
tab of Internet Options dialog box.
