This is something that I susbect most of you already know but I repeat it here anyway: Newer completely trust those free public proxies that are listed outside in the Net. Ever. Some of them like https://hidemyass.com/proxy-list will offer free "anonymous" proxies for your use. I did some testing and found out that not single one of those so called free high "anonymous" proxies in that list did what it was suppose to do but happily revealed your true IP-address. Some free anonymous proxy sites on the other hand do what they promise for example: http://www.freeproxylists.net/?pr=HTTPS&a[]=2&s=rs Bottom line is this: If you are using this proxychains program to bybass censorhip (a' la Great Firewall of China, so that you can watch Youtube) of your country then please take care and *always test your proxy or proxies beforehand!!!* There are plenty of sites like http://www.whatsmyip.org and others that can show if your IP is the same as proxy or if the proxy(proxies) will reveal your true IP. (I even made one IP sniffing page myself http://www.petroprogram.com/ProxyCheckSimple2.php ) So always remember to test those free proxies beforehand and newer do any e-mail checking or online bank stuff throught those proxies. Even if it's HTTPS enabled proxy. Ever!
