No they are from various free proxy sites found by searching Google and testing. By renew if you mean when are sources changed, if a source goes offline or stops updating their proxies they are switched for another source next ScrapeBox update. But if you mean how often are the proxies updated with fresh ones, then it depends on the source some update their proxies hourly and other sources daily.

You can add your own sources too, just Google for free proxies lists/sites and add the URL to ScrapeBox and it can harvest and test the proxies from there.
 
thanks for the response.

well i'll try to find some sites on google, but i guess you will have found them before me.

all i have is a bunch of queries that are usually used when looking for proxies on google, im not sure how i could automate that short of learning how to macro.

r u thinking about adding unicode compatibility so i can scrape for chinese doofollow? :-)

Well I hope you are right but I wonder, because several times I have gotten not even 1 proxys funtion and only old proxys, now i have to scrape with private ones in order to be able to scrape...
