 All GSA Tools can use so called CONNECT-Proxies. Those proxies are usually anonymous and work perfectly. Other tools do not understand this type of proxy and use it as a normal WEB-Proxy. Sometimes the proxy does not work here or it reacts differently (no longer anonymous, blocked by google, requires authorization...). If you want to rule out this problem, you need to uncheck the testing for CONNECT proxies in [[proxy_scraper:options#filter|options->filter]]. All GSA Tools can use so called CONNECT-Proxies.

 There was something strange that I discovered when building the tool. When the program searches for new sources, it could happen that it found proxies who are on port 80 but only seem to work for bing.com. There was something strange that I discovered when building the tool.

 You better not use those sites for anything other than bing scraping. I would never use that for facebook and you should also stay away from that. You better not use those sites for anything other than bing scraping. I would never use that for facebook and you should also stay away from that.
 To not use them in export files, just uncheck //UNKNOWN// as anonymous level and you rule them out. To not use them in export files, just uncheck //UNKNOWN// as anonymous level and you rule them out.

 +===== Can I scrape for proxies being useful for E-Mail Verification? =====
 +
 +Well yes, thats possible. However keep in mind that proxies are still public and might be banned quickly.
 +To get just proxies being able to be  used for E-Mail Verification do the following:
 +
 +  - On Main GUI click: **Settings**
 +  - Click on **Automatic Search**
 +  - Right click on the listing with the Test Scripts and click **Check None**
 +  - On that same listing find the test scenario called **Email Verification (gmail.com)** and check it.
 +
 +Now you will see the program searching for proxies and testing it only for email verification usage.
 +The proxies can later be exported to a file and e.g. imported to [[email_verifier:main_screen|GSA Email Verifyer]] (if you still own it).
