ProxySel

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffOctober 1, 2007It's free and lets you easily manage a proxy list from Firefox, but you'll need to install another program to use everything that ProxySel has to offer.ProxySel fits snugly into your Firefox menu bar and features a drop-down menu for editing, sorting, and importing proxy lists. There is also a feature for easily adjusting your browser anonymity settings. Your proxy list also is displayed in a drop-down menu. Each proxy has a star-based rating system, with one star being OK, and four stars being superior. You can add your own rating to each proxy server. Beyond that, there is a button for turning the proxy on and off, which you'll see reflected in the tiny status bar shortcut. Importing a list is a simple process, and entries are quickly available from the menu. One click and the selected proxy was activated.Our only complaint is that one of ProxySel's features, the TOR button, required a separate download from another Web site. But without that feature, it's still a very capable extension. If you're comfortable using proxy servers, this is a good program to have on-hand.
