Proxy Tab (using proxies):
A great feature of Server Uptime Monitor is the ability to use
proxies from around the world to monitor your website. A proxy is
basically another Internet connected machine which is in another
location around the world. You may search Google for free proxies or
even buy lists of some websites if you wish. Most proxies come in
the format of IP:PORT (444.444.444.444:2706). Once you have your
proxies, insert them into the proxy section to be able to use them.
Be sure to update proxies as often as possible (every few days) as
they can die quickly.
