The MIRC proxy server works and functions in much the same way as the anonymous servers you use when you are online. Not only does it give privacy, but any data about your computer is withheld, so there is no danger of exposing yourself in any manner whatsoever to a third party.

Using this server with your MIRC program is not complicated at all. The first step is to open the software itself. If you have not yet installed the program, you can do so by downloading it from any of the various software sites scattered on the Web. Once you have finished downloading the file, you can proceed to install the program by clicking the exe file.

Now you can modify the MIRC proxy server settings. You double click the application, and when it has launched, just go to the file menu and chose “setup”. Point your mouse towards the firewall tab and click. Place a check next to the “use SOCKS firewall” text. Now put in the host field the name of the server you have selected. In the port enter 1080 or whatever number the server uses.

There are few other options there. Remove the check mark (if any) on the “indented server” and ignore the ID and password fields. At the local info box, put in the IP address that was given your system when you set it up for the TCI/IP. Depending on the MIRC proxy server, you must choose either “on connect” or “always get”. The normal and quick options usually work for most servers; either one will do.

Once all of these have been prepared, you can run the program as you normally would. The only difference is that you are now anonymous, and regardless of which channel you enter, any information or data concerning you or your system will not be shown. It should be noted though, that the speed of your connection will be determined by the server you use. If you find yourself lagging, try another server. Because there are sites that list these links, finding one that works will not be difficult.

Locating an MIRC proxy server is no more difficult than looking for a public or Web based server. If you enjoy chatting in these channels but have always been concerned about your security, these services can provide the protection you need while still enjoying the features of the application.
