-
When a user sends a request to the site he or she wants to visit (which usually involves simply clicking the link), the web request doesn't go directly to the server of the site. Instead, it connects to the HTTP proxy first.
-
Once the request is received through the HTTP proxy, it is reviewed, and finally the information that is gleaned from it is used to generate a second request, this one would be sent to the web server. This is done in order for you to mask your IP address, so the web server can't access your private information.
-
When your HTTP proxy server transmits your HTTP request to the web server, it is processed by the server of the intended site so that a response to the user will be generated;
