You really feel secure since you don’t use any of your personal informations such as IP address, browser or OS details rather depending on the proxy site to do that for you. The other benefit is that you can access blocked websites on your computer too. No matter if your network admin or ISP has blocked those sites to be accessed by you. Here I’m going to tell how to configure Firefox to use proxy while surfing websites.
