server. Use this approach very carefully as it can result in significant delays, for example, if a non-existent hostname is requested!
DNS exclusion list contains the names that should not be resolved through proxy. If a hostname matches an entry of the list, the name is resolved by system facilities.
You can use wildcards (masks) where “?” matches any symbol and “*” matches any substring.
%ComputerName% constant is automatically swapped with the local computer name during the processing.
%SimpleHostnames% constant defines all names that do not contain a domain/subdomain (i.e. there are no dot-separated parts). Usually such hostnames are used with a local network so it makes no sense to resolve them through a proxy.
Proxifier will output DNS requests if Verbose output mode is enabled
(View->Output Level->Verbose), which can be useful when investigating DNS related problems.
Name resolving settings are stored in Proxifier profiles. So you can save/load them like the other settings.
Proxy Chains
With Proxifier you can work through a chain of proxy servers. Connecting to a remote host will be performed sequentially from one proxy server to another.
This mode can be useful when a remote host is only accessible through multiple proxies or when
Proxifier is used to ensure a high level of anonymity.
When working through a proxy chain, keep in mind the following:
A chain can contain proxy servers of different types: SOCKS v4, SOCKS v5, HTTPS. If you use HTTP proxy it must be the last one in the chain.
If at least one proxy is not functioning, the entire chain will not work.
The total lag will be the sum of all lags at all proxy servers in the chain.
If the connection is broken at one proxy, the entire connection to the remote host is lost.
To create a chain of proxy servers, click Proxy Settings in the Profile menu and add two or
more proxies. If the proxy chains area is not visible click the Proxy Chains... button and then click Create to create an empty chain. Now you can populate this chain with proxy servers from the list by drag-and-drop operation.
