7.2 Portable ((free)): Ccproxy

Executive summary

CCProxy 7.2 Portable is a Windows-based proxy server package (a portable build of Youngzsoft’s CCProxy v7.2) that aims to provide easy-to-configure HTTP/HTTPS, SOCKS, FTP, mail and other proxy services for small networks, portable use from removable media, or single-computer gateway scenarios. It’s feature-rich for basic to intermediate proxy tasks (account management, caching, filtering, bandwidth control) but shows limitations in security posture, modern protocol support, and enterprise-scale management compared with contemporary commercial or open-source proxy/reverse-proxy solutions.

Disclaimer: Always ensure you download CCProxy from trusted sources to avoid malware. Verify that your use of proxy software complies with your organization's IT policies and local regulations. CCProxy 7.2 Portable
