What happened to fbproxysite.com, and what still works

Fbproxysite.com was a free web proxy the archive first saved in June 2013. What it was, when it stopped, what the name does today, and a list that is still checked.

Skip the dead lists.

Our free proxy list re-checks every exit every few minutes across 100+ countries, with a live last-checked time, so you copy IPs that worked moments ago, not a stale text dump.

Open the free proxy list

The short version: fbproxysite.com is off the internet. Not blocked, not slow, not moved. The name no longer resolves, and the newest working copy anyone kept is from May 2015.

What sat at this address

The Internet Archive's first working copy of fbproxysite.com is from June 2013 and it holds 15 days of captures in total.

Underneath it was PHProxy, the same free script the rest of the directory ran.

The listing that carried it, on the free proxy directory workingproxysites.com, is 12 years old, and that listing counted 429 clicks through to it. Its entry gives the country as Germany.

When it went quiet

The last capture that shows the proxy itself is from 21 May 2015.

What the name does today

We checked fbproxysite.com on 10 September 2026 from our own server. The lookup fails outright. Without an address there is nothing to connect to, whatever a directory still says about it.

What to use instead

Use a list somebody keeps checking rather than a name that used to work. Our free proxy list is re-verified every few minutes, and an address that stops answering leaves it instead of sitting there for years. If you already have an address, the proxy checker will tell you whether it still relays anything.

The limits of free are the same everywhere, ours included: the addresses are shared, so the sites that care have seen them before, and there is no session to hold, so logins break part way through.

Where the record runs out

There is no account of who ran it or why they stopped. Small sites like this one leave dates behind, not explanations, and we would rather say so than fill the gap.

Treat the check as one sample: taken on one day, from one network. Anything refusing data centre traffic looks identical to something switched off. Due for a recheck by 1 January 2027.
