Proxy websites - Where and how to use them?

Many people are already using proxy sites for many purposes. And if you don't know how to use one, you are probably far behind the average people in the knowledge of internet. Proxy websites can be used for many purposes but there are some most common uses of proxy sites which drive the increasing number of new proxies. The most popular reasons for using proxy websites are:
1. Bypassing your network security: You can use a proxy website for bypassing your network security. Many internet service providers like the college and school internet providers log your internet uses into their database and can access your private information. In such places, one can use a proxy site to keep his internet surfing habits private.
2. Unblock sites like myspace, facebook, Bebo, Orkut: Many sites like myspace are being blocked in schools and colleges and at home by parents due to the indulgence of students into these sites. However, these sites can be unblocked by using a proxy site easily.
3. Anonymous Surfing. The web is full of hackers and attackers. One can use a web proxy to surf anonymously and protect their identity and privacy from these hackers...

So, you've probably got some idea on the uses of web proxy servers and you might also be thinking that next time you want to unblock a site, you will use one. But how to use a proxy site? It's simple. Just visit the proxy site and there will be a textbox where you can enter the url(address eg. http://www.google.com) of the website you want to visit and hit enter. OR you can just enter the address on the text box given on teh right side of this page and choose one of the proxy sites below and hit enter.
