Proxies
 
Hm...

So do you use proxies? If so, why do you use them?

Do you consider them to be safe? Would you have planned to invest money on a proxy site if you had the money to do so?

I use proxy sometimes if I have got banned from some site...Also, if some sites don't allow a "country" to the site...I use proxy so that I can view the content of the site or use it. I would have used a proxy site if I would have got an obvious domain which people would type in for looking up a proxy site ;)

Yea I use proxies all the time at work ;)
aliveproxy.com is the best so far in my opinion. I've gotten great results from them, and they have never let me down.

Everyone uses proxies :p. I use the proxy blockmy.info usually, and sometimes cloaker.ca, since I live in Canada. I'm not that much of a fan of normal non-web proxies. I've never gotten one to work for me, that wasn't extreamly slow.

I rarely use proxies because I dont need to use them. However sometimes I use free proxy servers for getting in to some blocked sites from our ISP in our city and country.. :wink:

I dont normally use them but yesterday some site was blocking uk ip address so i used a american proxy to get in.

I dont use proxies too much either. Only use it sometimes when I have to go to a site which my ISP blocks. I use net-conceal pro. Its a very good proxy software.

The wonders of technology...

I rarely have a need to use proxies, but I have used them a couple of times to fool servers into thinking I'm from the USA instead of the UK.

I wouldn't invest in a proxy site myself - I think the market is pretty saturated.
