Well, that's not the only reason why proxy is necessary, but I can tell you if you're willing to access the best darknet markets, it would be better for you to work with a proxy to stay anonymous and safe online. In general, people use proxy servers to get access to blocked sources, and it also prevents cyber attackers from entering a private network.

A proxy server is basically a gateway between you and the internet, and many people use it to go to dark web or something like that.

    long ago, before the internet or ARP net, we had this FEATURE too.
    we connected to one PC (server) with a dial up
    then it connected to another , and on and on.
    (with NO long distance charges, wink wink)
    85cent a minute then,
    one such place I used, back then was AMOCAT.
    and others.(most i now forget from 30years ago)
    fast forward and today we have the stinking
    CIA run servers with THOR. (reads like nightmare! and CIA lame excuses...)
    Thor is a DARK net server. (PROXY)
    now you have lots of reading and learning to do.

    good luck

A Proxy server holds web pages that you use often. It sits between you and the Internet. For proxy server settings have a look at Internet Explorer options, under connections. If you have no proxy server, then you can switch it off by unticking the "use proxy server" from there.

Why am I not able to connect to any websites and why am i getting an error that states "proxy server not responding".

I never use proxy settings. You could try turning it off and try. You almost certainly cannot use someone else's proxy server settings.

How can I fix the error: "Proxy server not responding" on my Dell desktop?

Why are you running a proxy server? If you are on a home computer, sounds like a virus may be intercepting your traffic. Go into the internet settings and check the proxy settings. Write them down, just in case, then disable the proxy service.

Also, I'd install Malwarebytes to check for viruses and trojans.

Use Google.com to search for one.
