internal proxy server

verdemuschio

Is it advisable to add the internal proxy server 127.0.01 to the GSA SER > ProxySites (Proxy Finder)? Or is it dangerous for privacy? I set it as in the photo. Let me know if it's okay or if it's better to delete it right away

HI. In fact I read somewhere on the internet, I honestly don't remember which site explained the GSA SER proxy settings, that it was necessary to add the internal proxy server to ProxySites to have good private proxies. I tried it, but if you say it's better not to do it then it's fine as you recommended

I use a good VPN, however it was just a curiosity. I thought it might work. But now you've made me doubt. So I deleted it

verdemuschio

So do I have to turn off the VPN?

Of course! The fact is that I don't understand much about proxies and VPNs, but I seem to have understood that logically the VPN conflicts with the proxies and consequently exposes my real IP. Is it right? That's why I asked if the best option is to turn off the VPN. It is clear that any advice the final choice is always mine.

verdemuschio

No, then I didn't understand correctly.  Would you leave the VPN on or off?  Obviously considering that GSA SER has active proxies. Of course point is to be anonymous

Perfect, now it's clear to me. Instead I deactivated it. I hope that no problems have arisen in the meantime, even if I had used a mask for transparent proxies anyway. A thousand thanks
