Our server analyzes your HTTP connection, and determines if a proxy server is behind your computer. If we detect a proxy, we'll provide the details. It should be noted that not all proxies are detectable as some proxies hide itself by not transmitting necessary Proxy HTTP headers. For this reason, the Proxy Check Test is not always 100% accurate. If you wish to be anonymous, a Personal VPN may be a better solution.

A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary between a client and a server. It can receive requests from clients and forward them to the server to be processed. Once the server has processed the request, the proxy server will forward the response back to the client.

The main purpose of using a proxy server is to hide the client's IP address and location, and to improve the security of the client's network by filtering incoming and outgoing network traffic. Additionally, a proxy server can also be used to cache frequently requested content, which can result in improved performance and reduced bandwidth usage.

There are several different types of proxy servers, including web proxies, reverse proxies, transparent proxies, and anonymous proxies, each with its own specific use case and functionality. If you wish to find publicly available proxy servers, please visit our proxy sites page. We also offer a free web proxy that you can use to hide your IP address.
