A free Networking program for Windows

Proxomitron is a free software only available for Windows, that belongs to the category Networking software with subcategory Network security (more specifically VPNs) and has been created by Sankey.

It’s available for users with the operating system Windows 95 and former versions, and it is available in English. The program version is 4.5 and was updated on 12/29/2005.

Since the software has been added to our selection of programs and apps in 2005, it has managed to reach 88.759 installations, and last week it gained 221 installations.

Proxomitron is a fairly light program that will not require as much space than many programs in the section Networking software. It’s a very popular software in Pakistan, China, and Saudi Arabia.

Do you ever wish you could stop blinking pop-ups and banners that take forever to load, don’t print properly, and cover up what you want to read? Promoxomitron allows you to block pop-ups and banners before they have time to annoy you.

The program’s name comes from how it works – it uses a feature of the web known as a “HTTP Proxy”. This allows a program (local or remote) to sit between your web browser and the Internet at large, to monitor everything and change it if you want to.

All proper web browsers support a proxy interface, because it’s part of the original specifications for the web. However, some ‘free’ service providers require that you use their proprietary browser. Some of these browsers are designed to be incompatible with any proxy or firewall.
