Those are new working web proxy servers. They should go passed the filters. I checked all of them and they are fast and reliable. The complete list of them is here: http://anonymouslist.net

hi, I notice this sets up a SOCKS proxy server, what if I have an application that has HTTP and HTTPS proxy servers and ports in the preferences, would this SOCKS proxy server still work for such application?
thanks,
Abed

Hi Alma

It doesn’t have to be 1080 or 8080 you can safely use any port over 1024 just make sure you use the same port both in putty and your browser. Make sure you ONLY have the SOCKS proxy set and it should be set to SOCKS v4 not v5

Let me know how you make out.

It simply isn’t working for me.
I am using in the school the putty,windows ssh client. The home Mac is ready to accept ssh requests. I am able to login via ssh to the home machine, but i cant use the browser if I change the proxy to localhost:port, when I redirect.
The article (and the others as well) doesnt desribe what kind of proxy runs on the mac. is it squid? why is it 8080 or why 1080?
