RainyShadow Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 1 hour ago, NotHereToPlayGames said: Technically the browser is irrelevant, the Proxomitron "test Proxy" is failing and that only tests the link between Proxomitron and ProxHTPPSProxyMII. OK, first a fun fact - in that picture i posted before, Proxo was testing the connection to CCProxy So, the HTTP chain. Using the ProxHTTPSProxyMII port fails the test same way as yours. Fortunately, normal operation is fine, it's just the test that fails. I wonder where that port 7734 in the error comes from, couldn't find it anywhere... Another fun fact: At least the build of Serpent that comes with XP Integral Edition was able to handle this and the rest of the downloads...

RainyShadow Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 (edited) Now for the guide... Remember this link? https://prxbx.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=2172 Grab one of the downloads at the end of the first post (i used the "advanced" one this time). Extract somewhere ( Program Files folder is fine), shorten the name to ProxHTTPSProxyMII Next go here (also linked in the above page) https://prxbx.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=2172&pid=17955#pid17955 Get the Launcher, extract in the ProxHTTPSProxyMII folder. You can add a shortcut to it in StartUp or wherever. Get Proxomitron from here (also linked in the above) I used the ProxN45m.zip file. Extract, rename folder to Proxomitron if you wish, add a shortcut to Proxomitron.exe in StartUp. Now, start both ProxHTTPSProxyMII (through the launcher) and Proxomitron. The default config for ProxHTTPSProxyMII should be fine enough. Proxomitron will need some tinkering. First uncheck all checkboxes on the main page. Click Proxy, put this in the field there, click OK. Don't bother testing (see here). 127.0.0.1:8081 ProxHTTPSProxyMII Then click Config, go to the Startup tab and put this in the bottom field ("bypass all URLs blabla"): $OHDR(Tagged:ProxHTTPSProxyMII FrontProxy/*)$SETPROXY(127.0.0.1:8081)(^) | $LST(Bypass) Save and you should be done.

RainyShadow Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 (edited) Browser setting for Chrome, 360, etc. : Control Panel > Internet Options In the Connections tab click on LAN settings. Check "use a proxy...", click Advanced, uncheck "use same settings..." Fill this in the HTTP row: 127.0.0.1 , port 8080 This for the Secure row: 127.0.0.1 , 8079 For Firefox-based browsers use the built-in browser settings. HTTP proxy - 127.0.0.1:8080 SSL proxy - 127.0.0.1:8079 [edit] forgot something very important, lol Right-click the CA.crt file in the ProxHTTPSProxyMII folder and select Install Certificate, click Next until it's done. For FF and the likes, open browser Preferences > Advanced > Certificates. Click View Certificates, then Import and select the CA.crt file.

The "m" has a "fallback feature" - when your remote proxy FAILS, it will fallback to a "direct connection" without warning ( https://proxomitron.info/files/index.html ). The Proxomitron community kind of went "up in arms" over that and the creator quickly released the "j" version. Lunch time so I'll revisit later.

The possibilities are limited only by one's imagination. This hidden menu opens when you hover over the top left corner and could easily contain Chromium links like chrome://flags or chrome://gpu or chrome://media-engagement or shortcuts to extension inner pages that normally take six mouse clicks to get to but now only take one. Very much looks like a browser extension , no ? I'm trying to find something similar to the one below. Could you help me ? As you can see , it's dead . It doesn't fetch alive IPs. It's a system tool for Vista (not an extension) . It has it's own filters too , BTW. Today it finally got me one IP , but the IP is blocked by the bloody instagram too. Pic removed , obsolete.

Maybe you should find a better way to pick your food. I fail to understand how getting a bunch of pictures helps you for that. Also, simple automated crawling will always get your new proxy quickly banned. Try using a GoogleBot user agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HTTPS connections go nowhere, there is nothing in both Proxomitron and ProxHTTPSProxyMII logs. It should have worked since "technically" the remote proxy part should not be used - it actually makes ProxHTTPSProxyMII complain about misconfigured port. WTF! When i added 127.0.0.1:8081 ProxHTTPSProxyMII as a remote proxy (NOT enabled), it started working (still fails the test though). WTF x2 I you want easier time and don't care about filtering through proxies, just leave the HTTP proxy field in the browser settings empty.

WTF x2 Totally freaking amazing! I had this working FOUR DAYS AGO but I kept thinking that the "test" actually MEANT something when it said it "failed". Totally WOW! I've re-read several posts on the other forum and NONE of them mention that the "test" button DOES NOT WORK! At least not that I could find. I'm just glad that BOTH of my logs are now "scrolling". This wasn't hard at all. Just a d@mn "test" button that says "fail" when in reality it PASSES. I guess all I can do now is "laugh out loud". And nap because I've spent too much time on a "test" button that doesn't actually "test" anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easier said than done . They now have a law here for these stupid "vaxxine passes" , so I can't even go to a shopping center, if I'm not jabbed every 4 months. Like I said , automated crawling is very similar to human usage , several pics in 20 minutes, no more than a hundred in 5-7 hours. If you read my earlier posts , I'm not the only one with this problem , they won't even allow us to look at one picture anymore !! Two - three reloads = total block .

You can see it for yourself in the uBlock window. Ok, I don't have that "problem"... the only extension I use is an adblocker but on the other hand I don't use my XP laptops for anything important. The old Thinkpad A31 I'm using now is still running the original install from 2003. No router, no VPN, no nothing and I'm not too worried if it connects to Paris, Moscow or Langley. Scanning/cleaning once a week. So far so good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
