When people speak about proxy servers they usually mean a server which forwards web sessions from a client PC to a webserver. The client PC connects to the proxy server and requests a resource from a remote web server. In addition to higher anonymity by hiding your identity the use of a web proxy for surfing the internet provides much more important security features such as the removal of images or the encryption of the internet addresses you are visiting. Cookies can be blocked, so analysis of surfing behaviour is not possible. Another important feature is the removal of javascript code, which is often used to load remote third-party applications into the website you are visiting. Proxy servers often get blocked by different censorship techniques very fast. If you choose a new proxy you can be sure that the proxy server you are using is almost unknown to the public and therefore most likely not blocked by censorship filters. A proxy server should not tend to be careless, because anonymity does not mean that your traffic will be encrypted. Therefore you should never enter sensitive user data like e-mail addresses or passwords into forms, if a proxy is used while surfing the internet.Andre is the owner of Proxy-Servers.biz.
