If you have a VPS, you can turn it into a SOCKS proxy very easily by setting up a tunnel with Putty, and there are many tutorials on that. I won't be concentrating there.,,,

If you have a SOCKS proxy, it is quite easy to turn it into a HTTP proxy by using some sort of a middleman... It took me a while to find a good and elegant solution, so i want to share it here.

In windows it's easy to do so by using delegate :: delegate9.org/delegate/ which is available for many other platforms, last update in 2014 but it still works wonders

let's say I want my HTTP proxy to be on port NNNN ... I start command prompt and run following command:

delegate -PNNNN SERVER=http SOCKS=IP:MMMM

SOCKS=IP:MMMM is the IP and PORT of the SOCKS proxy available on my network 192.168.xxx.xxx

this creates HTTP proxy that will be available locally for me only... to use with scrapebox or rankerx...

the cool part is that when i run command prompt as admin, delegate offers to become a service that can start on windows startup - making it very easy to bring up in the future

I have many a permanent VPS and constantly have dozens of rotating VPSes (with fresh IPs) that I use for my business. All of them are now my local SOCKS and HTTP proxies I can use with RankerX too, cause that one only wants HTTP proxies, no SOCKS..

so finally i installed vmware on my windows machine, and my friend helped me with a very tiny script that uses autossh and brings up tunnels to all my current VPSes. They become available on my network, for reasons quite obvious, not on localhost, as SOCKS proxies. and now thanks to delegate - they are available as HTTP proxies via localhost:NNNN without login/password .. 4MB footprint for the service in memory///

delegate can bridge many different types of connections and ports and can do many cool things, like lining up multiple proxies, pooling them, etc...
