Elite Proxy Switcher is a very interesting network tool. Just like its name suggests, it allows you to switch proxy servers. In other words, it saves you some time by going to your web browser settings and changing your proxy configuration for you. It currently appears to support Internet Explorer and Firefox.
The application is quite easy to use, too. The first thing you have to do is give it some proxy servers to work with. You can copy and paste proxy server addresses into the application and its list will be populated. On the app's website, there are a few public lists that you can use. Once there is a list of IP addresses and ports, Elite Proxy Switcher can test them to see if they work and mark them as "working", which saves a lot of time. It can also assess the level of anonymity each server provides. When you double-click on an IP address, the application will make that your active proxy. There is a feature that allows you to set certain servers as favorites and automatically switch between them when one of them goes down.
The paid version of this app allows you to automatically download a list of proxy servers which is said to be updated daily. The free version works very well and it is quite handy.
