Socksification Redux - With Pictures!

I was able to initially import a list of proxy servers when I first used ProxyFire.

Now I am trying to do it again and the program isn't importing them. It is a plain text file with just the IP addresses listed in a column (same as I did before).

Click Open Proxies tab >> Add Proxies >> Import >> Choose txt file >> Proxies appear in list >> Click OK >> The new proxies don't show up in the Open Proxies tab.

I checked the ProxyFire site and searched the web for any ideas but didn't find any help.

Anyone else experience this and if so, how did you correct it?

Thank you!

Thank you for the guide, OP.

Just a quick question/confirmation: SOCKS proxies work for any program that utilizes any port, while HTTP proxies only work for port 80? Does that mean that if I was hosting a web server while running on a SOCKS proxy, the web server's IP would change to that of the SOCKS proxy? Wouldn't that cause a conflicting port problem?

Edit: I know my reply is two months late, I hope this wouldn't be considered grave digging for a "sticky" thread.
 
Great thread! Helped me get away from being a noob with proxies.
 
I hope someone there can help me!!
I have checked several socks proxys with Charon, got a few good socks and then I imported them to ProxyFirewall but when I check them, they are all bad. However I know that those proxys are working since I was able to use them on Proxifier. Whats going on then?
 
Hmmm...I'm guessing this software is used to help make using proxies more secure? I have a proxy switcher (free one) that I use already. I'm just wondering.
 
Thanks for sharing this. This is very informative.
 
The link didn't work.
I googled: ProxyFirewall and downloaded the program, but now its asking me to register. And the landing page for registration doesn't work. Any ideas?
