WHAT IS AN INTERNET PROXY SERVER?
A proxy server is a kind of buffer between your computer and the
Internet resources you are accessing. They accumulate and save files
that are most often requested by thousands of Internet users in a
special database, called “cache”. Therefore, proxy
servers are able to
increase the speed of your connection to the Internet. The cache of a
proxy server may already contain information you need by the time of
your request, making it possible for the proxy to deliver it
immediately. The overall increase in performance may be very high.
Also, proxy servers can help in cases when some owners of the Internet
resources impose some restrictions on users from certain countries or
geographical regions. In addition to that, among proxy servers there
are so called anonymous proxy servers that hide your IP address thereby
saving you from vulnerabilities concerned with it.
ANONYMOUS PROXY SERVERS
Anonymous
proxy
servers hide your IP address and thereby prevent
unauthorized access to your computer through the Internet. They do not
provide anyone with your IP address and effectively hide any
information about you and your reading interests. Besides that, they
don’t even let anyone know that you are surfing through a
proxy server.
Anonymous proxy servers can be used for all kinds of Web-services, such
as Web-Mail (MSN Hot Mail, Yahoo mail), web-chat rooms, FTP archives,
etc.
WHY USE AN ANONYMOUS PROXY SERVER?
Any web resource you access can gather
personal
information about you through your unique IP address – your
ID in the
Internet. They can monitor your reading interests, spy upon you and,
according to some policies of the Internet resources, deny accessing
any information you might need. You might become a target for many
marketers and advertising agencies who, having information about your
interests and knowing your IP address as well as your e-mail, will be
able to send you regularly their spam and junk e-mails.
A web site can automatically exploit security
holes in your system using not-very-complex, ready-made, free hacking
programs. Some of such programs may just hang your machine, making you
reboot it, but other, more powerful ones, can get access to the content
of your hard drive or RAM. Everything a web site may need for that is
only your IP address and some information about your operating system.
