What is FoxyProxy and What Does It Do?

What is FoxyProxy and what does it do?

A proxy server is a type of Internet server that relays or translates the traffic of others. The idea behind this type of server is that they allow users to gain access to websites that would otherwise be blocked by their Internet provider.

The way this works is that the user has to make a configuration on their browser to forward certain types of traffic. This can be done by entering a URL of a specific website or using a proxy that is already configured for that site.

FoxyProxy is an application that will allow you to do this using the user interface that you already have on your computer. There are several proxy servers out there that have similar user interfaces, but FoxyProxy has a different approach.

How does FoxyProxy work?

To begin with, you have to install FoxyProxy on your computer.

After you have done that, you have to connect to the Internet. You will have to open a connection to a proxy server, but once you have done that, you will not be required to connect to any other servers.

You will not be required to change your current Internet connection, you will not need to enter any settings on the server. Once you have made a connection to the server, you will not be required to open any other programs.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
