The Best 5 Web Proxy Sites To Hide Your IP Address

HideIP Admin — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 12:00:54 +0000

Web proxies are clearly not the best option when it comes to hiding your IP address, but when no other options are available they are good enough. This is the case when you are at school or at work and you don’t have the rights to install any hide ip tool (like IP Hider, Hide-My-IP, Hide The IP, etc.) or to configure a VPN connection.

If this is you case, web proxies can save your day and let you access sites that are restricted by the school or company policy (Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, etc.). There are plenty of web proxies and places you can search for them, but finally the best are those that are online for a longer time (more than 1-2 months).

Here is a list of 5 web proxies that are available for more than 5 years and that I consider to be the best:

1. Hide My Ass

Website existing since: 2005
Website URL: http://hidemyass.com

2. Anonymouse

Website existing since: 2004
URL: http://anonymouse.org/

3. Vtunnel

Website existing since: 2005
URL: https://www.vtunnel.com

4. Proxy.org

Website existing since: 2004
Website URL: http://proxy.org/

5. Proxify

Website existing since: 2004
Website URL: http://proxify.co.uk/

Do you use web proxies to unblock your favorite site? What do you think it’s the best web proxy?

3 Sites To Find Good Web Proxies

HideIP Admin — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 08:12:29 +0000

Web proxies are probably the simplest way to hide your IP address. Just enter the url of the site you want to visit anonymously in the text box of the web proxy and press the Submit/Go button. Of course, there are downsides of this hide ip approach, but the idea is that it’s a solution that work (Pros & Cons of Browsing Anonymously using Web Proxies).

There are plenty of web proxies available on the net, but where to find them? And more important, where to find good, working web proxies? Poor performance, or slow download/upload speeds has been the biggest traditional complaint about using proxy servers.

Let’s see below 3 sites that provide proxy servers you can use.

Public Proxy Servers

PublicProxyServers is an independent, free service to allow you to find proxy servers for privacy and to circumvent browsing controls.

The site is excellent as it tracks the performance of each server on their free proxy list. You can access the proxies access time if you are looking for the fastest proxies. Want to appear that you’re coming from another country? Sort the list by country!

Centurian

Centurian is another site that offers much more than a free proxy list. The list can be sorted by the criteria of how new it is on the list, country, or script used to provide the proxy server. The speed of the proxy servers is shown graphically with a bar, that represents its score out of 10 for speed.

Hide IP Proxy

Hide-IP-Proxy is a blog that posts working web proxies. The main advantage is that you can subscribe by email to get fresh proxies everytime they are posted. Also you can find proxies listed by country and by state (for US).

3 Sites To Find Good Web Proxies

Proxy Servers: Good or/and Evil?

HideIP Admin — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 14:30:14 +0000

Proxy servers are hot news these days due to the election process in Iran and also due to the legal case where Microsoft is suing against three people that were defrauding Internet advertisers by using automated programs mimic users clickstreams.

David Storn, an expert on Internet and networking technologies who was the former editor-in-chief at Network Computing, Tom’s Hardware.com, and DigitalLanding.com, wrote a great article explaining what proxy servers are and how can they be used both for good and bad. Here are some interesting fragments from the article:

That is the good side of proxies. What about the evil side? Proxies are supposed to be for internal users of an enterprise, but if a hacker can find out the IP address of an internal proxy, they can gain access to lots of network resources.
…
There are also proxies that are used to make your browsing history anonymous, which can be used for both good and evil; depending on what information you are trying to hide.

Here you can read it all: The Good and Evil of Proxy Servers.

Are they a good thing? Or evil? Or maybe both?

Web proxies from Greece are quite rare. I have started my search for Greek proxies on Hide-IP-Proxy.info, with no success. The only Greek proxy I could find was the one offered by Change IP Country (cIPC). You only need to select Greece, enter the URL you want to visit and press GO.

I have recently found a new proxy site that lets you browse with Romanian IP address. The best part is that the proxy exposes more than 250 different IPs.

PHPProxy.ro allows to select a subdomain of the proxy with distinct IP address:

This way you will be able to browse with more than 250 different Romanian IP addresses.

What’s your source for good web proxies?

HideIP Admin — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 15:22:40 +0000

As you know, web proxies are the simplest way of hiding your IP address. A web proxy acts as an intermediate between your computer and the site you wnat to visit. This way, the targeted site won’t see your real IP address, but the IP address of the proxy. (read more: How Web Proxies Work)

Web proxies are ideal for those interested in getting unbanned from forums, in unblocking Facebook, MySpace, Orkut, YouTube, etc.

Of course, as any good thing in life, there are advantanges and disadvantages of using web proxies. Some time ago I have compiled a list of pros and cons that you should read: Pros & Cons of Browsing Anonymously using Web Proxies.

My Web Proxy Sources

I don’t use web proxies very much, but when I do, I prefer searching on several sites that I know that list fresh and working proxies. Here are my sources of web proxies:

Proxy.org - the no. 1 source for proxies
Hide-IP-Proxy.info – a blog that post working proxies day after day, plus you can search proxies by country.
StayInvisible.com
AZProxies.com

Web Proxies on How-To-Hide-IP.info

On How-to-hide-ip.info you can find a lot of posts that list from 1 to 100 web proxies. Here are the most visited:

Where do you find good proxies?

So, here is the question: where do you find good, working proxies that would not slow down your internet connection very much?
