Home » Proxy Scripts
There are currently three established scripts which are available for the creation of a web based proxy:
CGIProxy
James Marshall released the first version of the Perl based CGI Proxy on August 3rd, 1998. The project continues to be updated with the most recent release being 2.1beta17 which was released on March 11th, 2008. This gives the script a solid 10 year history which has led to it becoming one of the most popular of the proxy scripts available today.
Glype
Developed in PHP5 and using the cURL libraries Glype 0.1 Beta was first released on May 27th, 2007. By taking advantage of the cURL libraries the script has been marketed as a fast and reliable alternative to both PHProxy and CGI Proxy. The latest version of the script; 0.5.3.1 was released on March 4th, 2008 and the project remains in active development with several updates being released since the initial launch of the script.
PHProxy
PHProxy was created by Abdullah Arif and version 0.1 was released on June 15th, 2004. The script became a popular alterative to CGIProxy due to the fact that it was coded in PHP which itself was growing in popularity during this period. The latest version of the script is 0.5 beta 2 which was released on January 20th, 2007. Sadly this will be the last installment of the original PHProxy script as the owner had a change of heart and on September 7th, 2007 posted an announcement on his web site stating that he completely renounced and disavowed the project. No further development will take place however the script can still be downloaded from the SourceForge website.
If you would like to suggest a script for inclusion on this page please contact us providing as much information about the script as possible, developer information, release dates and version numbers, etc.
