Providers in this market disappear quietly, and School Proxy disappeared quietly. What follows is the registration and archive record, stated only as far as it goes, and no theory beyond it.

What the site does today

Three requests on 9 September 2026, https, www and http, all failed with ENOTFOUND. There is no server left behind that name.

The last working page the archive caught was in April 2021, out of 55 good snapshots. Coverage is not continuous, so read it as roughly when.

What it said about itself at the end

As of its last working snapshot in April 2021, the title read "Loading...".

Archived marketing is still marketing. What makes it worth quoting is that it cannot be edited after the fact, so it is a fixed record of the promise being made at the time.

The site, while it lasted

The archive first captured a working page in November 2007.

So the business existed and had a product. Whether it was any good is not something the record can settle.

What this page cannot tell you is the reason. Companies close for ordinary reasons far more often than dramatic ones, and the public record does not distinguish between them. Everything above is a date or a capture; none of it is a motive.

Picking a replacement

Practical first step for a former customer: stop any recurring payment at your bank rather than on their site, since their site is not there to stop it on. Then check your dispute window.

Frequently asked questions

What happened to School Proxy?
We do not know, and we will not guess in public. The record shows when the site stopped being captured and that it no longer answers. It says nothing about the reason, and every confident explanation of a small provider's shutdown that we have read traces back to a forum rumour.
What should I use instead of School Proxy?
A list that is re-checked rather than a name someone remembers. Our free proxy list is re-verified every few minutes, so an address that stops answering drops off it instead of sitting there for years. Free proxies stay shared and short-lived, so anything that needs a login will still break.
Why does School Proxy still show up in reviews?
Because affiliate reviews are rarely revisited once they rank. Search demand for a dead provider outlives the company by years, and the pages recommending it keep earning, which is why a dated check like this one is worth more than a five-star roundup.
