Hi,
Here is what i do to know the level of a proxy:
#: grab your own IP ( http://curlmyip.de/ )
#: have a phpinfo.php page to query ( http://leserged.online.fr/phpinfo.php )
1: query the phpinfo page using the proxy you want to check
2: check for footprint, example: "phpinfo()" if this footprint isn't in the response, it means the proxy isn't even return the right page, it's garbage
3: check if your real IP is in the response, if it is, then the proxy is transparent.
4: if your your real IP is not in the response, then you at least have an anonymous proxy
5: now, to know if it's elite or anonymous, you need to check for special headers that the proxy server would add to your query, here is a small list you can check for: "VIA", "FORWARDED", "CLIENT_IP", if one these headers is in the response of phpinfo(), then it's anonymous, if you don't find any you may have found an elite proxy
If you guys have other methods, i'd like to hear them!
