FreeProxy is professional Freeware which channels requests for internet pages via a single computer and enables many computers to share an internet connection.
If you have dial-up internet access, you can use the Demand Dial or Auto-Dial feature to dial up the internet either when it detects you want to access the internet (demand) or maintain a strict schedule of connection times (auto). Works fast with Cable/Broadband.
FreeProxy was developed as a freeware proxy server which has support for HTTP, SMTP, POP, FTP over HTTP, TCP Tunneling, NNTP and SOCKS5.
FreeProxy works with a wide range of clients including web browsers, ICQ, MSN Messenger and many others.
Features include user authentication to both an internal user database or to a windows domain, extensive reporting, resource permissions, URL filtering, IP address filtering, local port binding, on-demand dialing, calendar control, proxy chaining and numerous other features.
FreeProxy also includes a small web server and can run as a service on all current platforms. Very detailed help is included that documents all aspects of the setup and client configuration.
