If it's a free proxy I would be very cautious. Many are run by hackers and will plant bots and other malware on your computer.

Who does the proxy server belong to?
contact your systems administartor or turn off proxy.

If this is a home machine and you dont use a proxy, you may have malware that has hijacked your browser, and you should probably reset your browser.

Try another browser (i.e. firefox, chrome, opera, etc) to see if the issue is limited to your browser.

SOURCE: System shows as connected, but can't get explorer.

Open the 'internet options' either from in explorer or in the control panel. Open the 'connections' tab and click 'advanced'. At the bottom there is a button that says 'LA
N Settings'. Make sure to clear all of the check boxes and restart your browser.

The Proxy server is refusing connection,. Unable to connect to the Proxy server. Error 130 (net : Error_Proxy_Connection_Failed)

Google Chrome may not be using a proxy from your ISP odds are that it is not so you will have to go into the tools and options and then select connections section and disable the connection for proxy server usage just un check it not to use any proxy servers that is what is going on. I hope that this assisted you. Thanks for using FixYa! John

Connection was refused when attempted to connect the proxy server

You can follow some tips when you make the changes in the proxy settings in Firefox. Obtaining your IP address is very important, and make sure that you are not giving the IP address to outsiders. Follow the instructions carefully; this will help you to make an easy change in the settings. And after the changes, you would be using the 'Manual Proxy Connection', so your details are not shared or traced by anyone on the net. To change the setting to direct connection, turn off the proxy and restart the settings. Now, you can make changes to the proxy setting. This feature in Firefox has enabled many Firefox users to have a safe and secure browsing.

The proxy server is refusing connections

When you set up your internet connection, you apparently entered information about a proxy server. Go back through that procedure and delete the reference to proxy server. Hope that helps!

Firefox refuses connection with ultrasurf's proxy

Well Ultrasurf obviously does not want to work with your internet connection (like mine)

For now you need to remove Ultrasurf. Go to Tools>>Add-ons>>UltraSurf Firefox Tool>>Disable OR Uninstall.

That should at least get your internet working...

As for a working proxy, try using a "Web based proxy"

Google it.

Thanks,
Ted

Proxy Server Refused Connection Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections. ...

If you're using Firefox, click on "Tools" at the top of the page, click on "Options" which is at the bottom of the list that comes up, then click Advanced, choose Network from the four tabs below that. There should be a sentence "configure how Firefox connects to the Internet". Click on the button next to it that says "settings". and make sure that "Auto-detect proxy settings for this network" has a dot in the little circle. If not, click on it and click on OK.
You may have to shut down Firefox (your internet browser programme), then try getting in again. Should have sorted it.
