Foxy is a content filtering HTTP proxy server. It's not just another “internet filter”, “web cleaner”, “popup blocker”, “ad remover”, “form filler” “porn stopper”, etc. It can do it all, and much, much more.
It can modify content on the fly using its internal filters and external user-written scripts, block access to undesirable resources, track users' online activity, generate traffic reports, forward requests to multiple proxies depending on the requested URL.
Foxy may be used as is, with no changes to the default configuration, but to fully leverage its potential some basic understanding of HTML language and HTTP protocol may be needed.
Features:
Core features:
• Proxies HTTP, FTP, and SSL protocols. Only HTTP traffic is filtered, FTP and SSL connections are tunneled without filtering (you don't want your secure data or FTP file downloads to be altered in any way). All traffic is recorded and reflected in traffic reports.
• May run on the same machine as your browser or as a server serving multiple clients.
• Features browser-based user interface; works with any browser running on any platform.
• Supports both HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1 (including persistent connection and chunked transfer).
• User authentication and IP address allow/deny lists for users and administrators.
• Can be used as a lightweigth HTTP server.
