MultiProxy is a multifunctional personal proxy server that protects
your privacy while on the Internet as well as speeds up your
downloads, especially if you are trying to get several files form
overseas or from otherwise rather slow server. It can also completely
hide your IP address by dynamically connecting to non-transparent
anonymizing public proxy servers. You can also test a list of proxy
servers and sort them by connection speed and level of anonimity.

Proxomitron give you huge control of browser surfing. You can filter
both in and out.
Have you ever wished you could turn off some of those fancy new
HTML features your web browser supports? Are you tired of pages
filled to the brim with blinking banners, pop-up windows, and other
such aggravations?
Using special HTML filters, the Proxomitron can transform web pages
on the fly - changing most anything you wish. Speed your browsing
by saying goodbye to slow loading cyber spam and other
web-gimmickry. Customize pages to suit your tastes. Take control of
your web viewing, and don't be slave to some web-master's whims.
Not everyone is aware that there's a hidden conversation going on
between your web browser and the sites you visit. Known as HTTP
header messages they can contain all sorts of information - some of
which you might rather keep to yourself. The Proxomitron not only
lets you view all messages, but also lets you alter, add, or delete
them. If security is important to you, make it your business to know
what your browser is telling the world and have it say only what you
want!
If you already use web proxies to speed your internet viewing, the
Proxomitron can help here too. It can maintain a list of different proxy
servers and allow you to easily switch between them. You can even
test proxy servers for accessability and see what, if any, HTTP
headers they may add.
