Best Proxy Switcher

Best Proxy Switcher is a Firefox extension that comes in handy for users who want to browse the web anonymously, allowing them to switch between proxy addresses easily.

The add-on relies on a service that manages to make you invisible in the online environment by creating connections to various proxy servers from all around the world, which are retrieved on user demand. It can also handle imported proxies, if that suits you better.

It works only inside Firefox, thereby it won’t have an impact on any other browser. Installation is quite easy; simple drag and drop the CRX file onto the navigator and allow it to install, following which you’ll have to restart it in order to apply the changes.

The extension implements a menu inside the URL address bar, from where you will be able to enable or disable it seamlessly. However, prior to any operation, it is necessary to load the list of proxy addresses (you can write them on the spot or import them from a text file) or to download a collection of IPs from the developer’s website.

However, the list is limited to a few entries, unlimited access being granted by subscribing for a paid account. In our opinion, the paid plans are aimed at more advanced audiences, such as webmasters or network admins, whereas the free list should suffice for the average user.

Switching to one of the available proxy servers can easily be done using the add-on’s control panel. You can swap between proxies all over the world with a single click. As a side note, it is recommended that you choose one belonging to the country that’s the closest to you, for a superior web speed.

On an ending note, Best Proxy Switcher comes across as a steady and reliable proxy selector. It makes browsing more private, protecting you from theft or tracking attempts.
