Typing spainproxy.com today gets you a parking page put there by whoever holds the name. The proxy behind it stopped being captured after July 2008.
What it was
The Internet Archive's first working copy of spainproxy.com is from July 2008 and it holds 75 days of captures in total.
The page called itself "SpainProxy.com - Spain's Premium Free Proxy Website". Underneath it was PHProxy, the same free script the rest of the directory ran.
You can unblock popular social networking sites such as MySpace, Bebo, Facebook, YouTube, Orkut, Friendster and many other sites.
That is the site's own description, from the capture of 4 July 2008.
It was listed on workingproxysites.com, a directory of free web proxies, 10 years ago, and that listing counted 346 clicks through to it.
When it stopped
The last capture that shows the proxy itself is from 4 July 2008 and the archive kept visiting until 15 April 2022.
By 15 April 2022 the same address answered with something else: the capture from that day is titled "SpainProxy.com is available at DomainMarket.com. Call 888-694-6735".
What the name does today
We checked spainproxy.com on 10 September 2026 from our own server in Germany. It answers, and the page is titled "Parked Domain name on Hostinger DNS system".
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.
What this page cannot tell you
The record shows when, not why. Nothing public says whether the operator lost interest, lost the hosting, or simply moved on, so this page does not guess.
Our status check is one day from one vantage point, and a site that refuses requests from data centres would look the same as one that is switched off. We will check this page again by 1 January 2027.
