Proxifier allows network applications that do not support working through proxy servers to operate through a SOCKS or HTTPS proxy or a chain of proxy servers.
With Proxifier, you can easily tunnel all a system’s TCP connections or only those you select.
Proxifier allows you to
- run any network application through a proxy server. The software requires no special configuration, and the entire process is completely transparent
- access the internet from a restricted network through a proxy server gateway
- bypass firewall restrictions
- "tunnel" the entire system (force all network connections, including system connections, to work through a proxy server)
- resolve DNS names through a proxy server
- use flexible Proxification Rules with hostname and application name wildcards
- ensure privacy by hiding your IP address
- work through a chain of proxy servers using diverse protocols
- view real-time information on current network activities (connections, hosts, times, bandwidth usage, etc.)
- maintain log files and traffic dumps
- get detailed reports on network errors
- and much more!
Specifications:
- Proxy protocols: SOCKS4, SOCKS4A, SOCKS5, HTTPS, and HTTP (HTTP connections only)
- Authentication: SOCKS5 username/password authentication (RFC 1929), HTTP Basic, NTLM (including transparent mode), Kerberos
- Full IPv6 support
- Full 64-bit application and system support
