Software that turns a website into an Anonymous Proxy Server is freely available for anyone to download. Every day new websites, with unrecorded IP Addresses, are popping up as new Anonymous Proxy Sites. Increased popularity, easy accessibility and the protection of anonymity has led to an increase in suspicious online activity.

An algorithm has been developed as an effective solution to the complex Proxy dilemma. This system's results produce the most accurate way to identify anonymous proxies by looking through their complex characteristics. This sharply contrasts with methods which rely primarily on using IP blacklists of yesterday's proxies.
