First, Introduction
Foxyproxy is an advanced agent management tool that completely replaces Firefox's limited agent capabilities. It offers more features than Switchproxy, Proxybutton, Quickproxy, Xyzproxy, Proxytex, Torbutton, and more.
Foxyproxy can automatically switch the network connection of one or more proxy servers based on the URL pattern. Simply put, Fox Yproxy automates the manual editing process of the Firefox Connection Settings dialog box. The proxy server switches based on the loaded URL and the interchange rules you define.
