Charon searches for proxy servers and tests their anonymity. Includes a custom filter for dangerous (fbi/gov/army) ranges

Charon is a multipurpose proxy program. Charon will search google for publically posted proxy lists and incorporate an environmental checker to verify their anonymity / functionality.

This is the follow up to the proxy filtering program Calamity. It provides a fully customisable way of filtering out unwanted proxies via control files, a proxy tester to check anonymity - and a fully functional search engine crawler to find lists of posted proxies. Included within the kit is a php checker which can be uploaded to your own webspace to spread the processor load and bandwidth of the actual testing. This is fully integrated into Charon where it will simply send your pages lists of proxies and harvest the results.

Charon provides several methods for checking each and all the selected items, so you can test the anonymity, scan IP range for proxies and even check search engines to see whether new proxies can be found and added to your list.

There are some filters you can apply so as to avoid dodgy sites, duplicates and gateways. Also, with Charon you can select the order in which proxy ports will be checked and have other ports that may be found either deleted or kept just by ticking the corresponding box.
