A web-based proxy is a service that allows you to bypass your own internet provider and browse using the proxy web-based website. All that you have to do is type the website address you would like to visit in the form they provide, and start browsing.

The paid ones all have the advantage of better server funding, and therefore usualy provide faster services, but many of the free proxy sites that the great net provides are just as good.

Proxies can be very useful if your ISP blocks certain websites, if the firewall at work blocks certain websites, if you want to register a new account at a forum you’re already registered to, etcetc. When working with paid for posting services and other internetrelated things, proxies will come in handy many times. The reason I so suddenly became interested in proxies is because the ISP I use have recently come in disagreement with another international carrier, and I can’t view certain websites with my connection, but a proxy solves this problem! A certain irony with this is that one of the best proxy lists on the net, http://www.proxyserver.sc , is also unnaccesible, as well as http://www.proxystation.com . . . and probably many more. So I had to use a proxy to visit them. 
Anyhow, here’s a short selection. They’re all good, and most of them have the same options, so just chose your pick if you need them.
