Browser Proxy Setting : Quickly apply custom proxy settings for Firefox, Chrome and CoolNovo, enter the SSL, FTP and SOCKS details, and reset settings to default
With the help of Browser Proxy Setting you can seamlessly apply proxy configurations separately for Firefox, Chrome and CoolNovo by just filling out some simple details.It doesn't feature advanced options or customization properties, so you don't necessarily need experience with networking utilities.
No setup besides .NET Framework
As long as you have .NET Framework and one of the mentioned browsers installed on your computer, you don't need to set up anything else. Browser Proxy Setting's program files can be saved anywhere on the disk and you can directly click the executable to launch the small app. Plus, unlike most installers, it doesn't modify any Windows registry settings.
Straightforward interface and options
Represented by a tiny frame that shows all options available, the interface is easy to figure out. After selecting the preferred browser between Firefox or Chrome (or CoolNovo, which uses the same engine as Chrome), all you have to do is enter the HTTP address and port number, in addition to SSL, FTP and SOCKS details (SOCKS v.4 or v.5).The current settings are applicable for all protocols or just the current one, and they are easily committed with the click of a button. Apart from the fact that you can reset everything to default just as quickly, there isn't anything else worth mentioning about this app.
Evaluation and conclusion
As you probably have guessed, it's light on system resources usage, so it doesn't hamper PC performance. Too bad that it hasn't been updated for a long time, and its support doesn't extend to other browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Maxthon, Opera or Safari. All in all, Browser Proxy Setting offers an effective and fast solution for changing proxy settings for Firefox and Chrome/CoolNovo.
