    (Answer)  (Category)  FAQs : (Category)  Check Proxy Professional FAQ (English) : (Category)  Proxy Servers : (Answer)  What is HTTP or SOCKS proxy server?
    HTTP proxy server is a proxy, allowing working on the Internet with HTTP and (not always) FTP protocols. It (as well as other proxy servers) can carry out caching of information downloaded from the Internet. SOCKS proxy allows to work with any (version SOCKS 4 - with TCP, SOCKS 5 - with TCP and UDP) protocols. A socks proxy simply transfers data from a client to a server, not penetrating into this data contents (therefore it can work with HTTP, FTP, SMTP, POP3, NNTP, etc.)
