How does socks proxy server work for Firefox?
I used a socks proxy server for Firefox but ..everytime i open a web page it says “proxy server refused connection”. How do i pass this error to open my website? What happened? I dont know much about how they work..so explain in detail to fix this problem! thanks.
Just go into your Firefox proxy settings and disable the proxy setting.
Then stop using unknown proxies as you are going to end up trashing your computer.
Even if you do get a proxy to work for a bit what do you get? A lot of these are hacker pots designed to either steal your information or plant bots on your computer that they can use. The recent facebook and Twitter DDOS attacks the took down their entire networks is a classic example of what people using proxies and getting infected enables.
Even if it’s not a hacker pot it’s probably loaded with advertisements as that’s how the owner is making money. In either case the owner has no incentive to provide fast response or high bandwidth. The owner of the proxy is using you and delivering very little back to you.
At the end of the day you’re just wasting a lot of time that could be spent doing something more productive at best and risking your computer and more at the worst.
