Recommendation of anonymous proxies source?
Hi,
I am using the manual proxy pool way of anonymizing as shown here:
http://community.screen-scraper.com/anonymization_via_manual_proxy_pools
And I am getting a list of proxies from here:
http://www.textproxylists.com/proxy.php?anonymous
However, when I filter them for 7 second connection timeouts as per the example, I end up with only around 30 usable proxies out of a list of around 900 servers :-S
I am wondering if anybody can suggest me a better source for getting a list of good anonymous proxies.
Many thanks,
boga
This is a perpetual problem
This is a perpetual problem for us too. We have a guy who built a process to scrape several free lists, test each proxy against a site, and if good, put in a good proxy list. I think he mentioned they have only about a 1% success rate.
There are some paid sources out there like ProxyBonaza.com that seem better.
