What is a proxy list?
A proxy list is a list of alternate IP addresses derived from proxy servers and can vary in type such as HTTP, HTTPS, SSL, SOCKS5 and more. This article will discuss the different versions of proxy lists and the main uses for them.
SOCKS/SOCKS5 Proxy List
A SOCKS proxy list offers more secure proxies as the proxy server routes traffic through a firewall while facilitating the exchange of information packets between a client and an external server. SOCKS will route any traffic from any program or other protocols. A SOCKS5 list is a more secure list that functions the same as its SOCKS counterpart but adds a level of authentication by only allowing those with the right credentials the authorization to access the server. Proxies sold within these lists all work with this protocol but the differences between SOCKS protocols is their ability to support applications. If you are required to work with TCP or UDP applications, this is the type of proxies you need.
