and guess what? YOU get blamed for it, since its YOUR IP address.So be smart, listen to experience and set the proxy up carefully the website has plenty of documentation. Brute force detection prevents hackers from attempting multiple password attempts to hack into your proxy server, once they have your login they can then go anywhere you can go.You may think who cares, but many hackers see this as an opportunity to use your newly created proxy to spread viruses or hack into other peoples computers, websites, etc.

you install this, make sure everything is turned off except for the proxy server, also turning on caching will help speed up the downloading of data frequently viewed because it keeps a copy stored on the proxy server.InternetFirewall(router/modem)computerJanaServer(Caching proxy)When you connect to the proxy you make an authentication request, which once authenticated you can log in, then you can access any website, the websites will be stored in the CACHE, so instead of downloading those graphics or files repeatedly it instead comes directly from the cache thus giving you a speed increase over the proxy.It is important to make sure you enable Authentication (User Management) User management allows you to prevent unauthorized users from connecting to your proxy and using it for malicious purposes(which they will) It is also VERY VERY VERY important to make sure you do not turn off brute force detection. Attempts to modify K9 at the registry level will have the same effect. By design, K9 will block all internet access should one attempt to uninstall K9 without using a password.



Oh a great windows based proxy server is JanaServer. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO UNINSTALL K9 WITHOUT A PASSWORD.
