Create a Proxy

There are many ways to access restricted websites, most of which are discussed here. One way that is glossed over in that article and may not have been the easiest to understand, was proxies. This article will go over each type of script in more detail.

Steps

1. The first one of several is PHProxy. This is a script written in the PHP scripting language, and is easily the most often used. Here's how to set it up:
   • Either setup your own web server, or get a web hosting account. There are many web-hosts both free and paid. Any one that allows php, such as awardspace.com, will work.
   • Download the script.
   • Upload the included files to your server or webhost. That's all you need, but you can change the way your proxy looks using CSS to customize the template.
2. The next script is CGI Proxy. This one is a bit frustrating. If you have your own server, install cgi/perl on it. If you have some webhost online, find one that supports CGI scripts. One good one is tripod.com.
   • All you should need to do is upload the nph-proxy file to the right directory, but chances are it won't work because of some unknown reason. you can also try using the automated installer (Google it) which requires an ftp account. Some, but not all free webhosts offer this.
   • Unless you have some magic touch, you will likely have failed. This is normal. if you don't know perl, this script is impossible.
3. This next script is my favorite: Glype. Glype is steadily gaining popularity, and is available at glype.com
   • This script needs php and Curl access. The only free webhost that offers this is 000webhost.com. If you have your own server then there is no issue.
   • Open the folder and zip the upload folder.
   • Upload the upload folder, and then link to it. Everything should work.

Tips

• Use the glype script when you can, but you can use the phproxy script anywhere you want, almost.
• Avoid CGI Proxy
• Surrogafier is great, if you don't mind not having images.

Warnings

• Because of the large amount of resources it takes, many free webhosts will kick you off in about a week. There are many good proxy hosts available, i.e. Godaddy.com.
