ukproxy.online does not answer. The name still resolves, but nothing responded to our request, and the archive's last working copy is from August 2018.
What it was
The Internet Archive's first working copy of ukproxy.online is from August 2018 and it holds 21 days of captures in total.
The page called itself "Proxy UK - Free Proxy Online". The directory recorded it as a PHProxy install, which is what nearly all of these sites were.
The physical server location is UK, your IP address is virtually change to the server location.
That is the site's own description, from the capture of 9 August 2018.
It was listed on workingproxysites.com, a directory of free web proxies, 8 years ago, and that listing counted 2,311 clicks through to it. The directory recorded it as Europe.
When it stopped
The last capture that shows the proxy itself is from 9 August 2018 and the archive kept visiting until 25 December 2021.
What the name does today
We checked ukproxy.online on 10 September 2026 from our own server in Germany. The name resolves to 72.52.178.23, but nothing answered on either protocol.
Where to go from here
A list with a visible last-checked time beats a remembered domain. Ours re-verifies every few minutes; the checker tests a single address if you would rather bring your own.
Expect what free has always meant: shared addresses that targets recognise, and no session persistence, which breaks anything behind a login.
What this page cannot tell you
Why it stopped is not in the record. A dead name and an archive that runs out show that something ended, not the reason for it, and we will not put a reason in print that the record does not carry.
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.
