How HProxy checks 176.12.73.250:3128
176.12.73.250:3128 is in the live pool right now, and it stays there only for as long as it keeps answering. Here is exactly what HProxy does to it, and how often.
Port 3128: Squid default
Port 3128 is the default listening port for Squid, the most widely deployed caching proxy in the world. Most addresses published on 3128 are Squid installations that were left reachable from the public internet rather than restricted to a local network.
Every check is a real connection
HProxy does not read this address off somebody else's list and pass it on. Each check opens an actual connection to 176.12.73.250:3128 and waits up to 4 seconds for the other end to complete a proxy handshake. Anything that does not answer in that budget counts as a failure and is recorded as one, which is why the percentage on this page moves rather than sitting at a marketing number. The handshake is attempted across HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4 and SOCKS5, which is how we know it spoke HTTP.
2,475 checks, 1,037 answered
That is 42% of the time, measured since June 23, 2026. Every one of those results, successes and failures alike, is a connection HProxy opened itself.
It is being re-tested continuously
176.12.73.250:3128 is in the live rotation, so it is re-tested continuously rather than on a daily cycle. If it stops answering it is marked down immediately, and if it stays down for 3 days it moves into the public proxy database with its full record intact. Nothing is deleted at any point.

What HProxy holds on HostLab
Open proxies are not spread evenly across the internet. They cluster, because one misconfigured template, one cheap hosting reseller or one leaked image tends to produce hundreds of identical machines on the same network. HProxy tracks 24 addresses on AS205431, which is 0.00% of every address in the database and a small corner of the database. 3 of them are answering right now, so if this particular address is not usable, the network is a reasonable place to look for one that is.

About this list & IP removal
Every proxy here is aggregated from publicly available sources. We do not scan or collect these IP addresses ourselves: we verify entries that are already public (live status, latency, uptime) and store nothing else about the devices behind them. The list is provided as-is, with no warranty, for lawful use only, on the basis of our legitimate interest in a free, transparent proxy directory (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). Never route passwords or sensitive data through a public proxy. If an IP address is yours and you'd like it removed, email legal@hproxy.com and we'll take it down (Art. 21 GDPR).
