ProxyChecker

An easy to use open-source, multithreaded Proxy Checker. Quickly check HTTP, SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 proxies, including ones that need a username and password, in a user friendly GUI for Windows, macOS and Linux, or straight from the command line.

All releases are on the releases page.

Features

• GUI based, with a command line mode for servers and scripts
• Check HTTP, SOCKS4/4a and SOCKS5 proxies
• Authenticated proxies (user:pass@host:port or host:port:user:pass)
• Stop a check at any time and keep the results gathered so far
• Fast loading of huge proxy lists (500,000 lines in under half a second)
• More accurate results: a proxy only counts as working if a valid judge response comes back through it, so proxies that serve their own login or error pages are no longer reported as working
• Multithreaded & multiplatform
• Filters and removes duplicate proxies
• Load from multiple proxy lists (or drag and drop them)
• Proxy anonymity, response time & country information
• Export the table (CSV) or export based on anonymity

Requirements

• Windows and macOS installers: nothing else, Java is included
• ProxyChecker.jar: Java 11 or newer
• Internet connection :)

Installation & Usage

Download the release for your system above and run it. On Linux, run the jar with java -jar ProxyChecker.jar.

Command Line

Check proxies without the GUI, e.g. on a headless server:

java -jar ProxyChecker.jar --cli -i proxies.txt -t socks5 --threads 200 --timeout 5000 -o results.csv --only-working

Add -v to see each result as it finishes, or press Ctrl+C to stop early (the results so far are still saved). Run java -jar ProxyChecker.jar --help for all options.

With Docker:

docker run --rm -v "$PWD:/data" faiqsohail/proxychecker --cli -i /data/proxies.txt -t socks5 -o /data/results.csv -v

What’s New in 1.3

• SOCKS4 support and authenticated proxies (HTTP, SOCKS4 and SOCKS5)
• Command line mode, also available as a Docker image
• Stop button: stop a running check without waiting for timeouts
• Much faster loading of large proxy lists
• More accurate results with fewer false positives
• Separate macOS downloads for Apple Silicon and Intel
• Many bug fixes and performance improvements
