myProxyChecker

Free HTTP proxy list

A continuously-updated list of public HTTP proxies. An HTTP proxy understands and forwards your web requests, which is why it can add headers such as Via or X-Forwarded-For — exactly what lets a checker grade its anonymity (transparent, anonymous or elite). Best for plain HTTP web traffic and header-level testing.

HTTP vs HTTPS vs SOCKS

An HTTP proxy is ideal for non-encrypted web traffic. For HTTPS sites you'll usually want an HTTPS/SSL or SOCKS5 proxy that can open a CONNECT tunnel. Background: proxy types.

How to use these proxies safely

Free proxies rotate and die fast. Before you depend on any row, paste it into the bulk proxy checker to confirm it's alive and measure speed, exit IP and anonymity, or normalise formats with the proxy formatter. Only use proxies you're authorised to use.

Frequently asked questions

What is an HTTP proxy?

An HTTP proxy understands and forwards your web requests, which is why it can add headers such as Via or X-Forwarded-For that reveal its anonymity level.

Can HTTP proxies handle HTTPS sites?

Plain HTTP proxies are best for non-encrypted traffic. For HTTPS sites use an HTTPS/SSL or SOCKS5 proxy that can open a CONNECT tunnel.

How do I know if an HTTP proxy is anonymous?

Run it through the proxy headers test or the bulk checker, which inspect exactly which forwarding headers the proxy leaks and grade it transparent, anonymous or elite.
