Good Proxies That Work Through Firewalls
When you access the Internet, servers that you connect to detect your IP (Internet Protocol) address, browser type, referring website, your operating system and even some information about your location. Proxies are used to provide a level of anonymity to Web users while surfing the Internet. A proxy acts as your intermediary by routing the communication between your computer and the Internet so you can be anonymous while accessing Web servers.
