Squid Manager – web proxy cache manager for Mac OS X

Squid is a web caching proxy that is wildly useful for those of us on slower internet connections or anyone that has reduced bandwidth availability, it reduces bandwidth by caching and reusing frequently accessed web pages and works with http and https. Squid has been particularly useful to me on business visits to places where broadband is a distant concept rather than the norm, it really makes the web usable in challengingly slow internet environments. Squid Manager is a nifty manager to use the Squid web caching proxy on your Mac, so if you’re in the market to use Squid on your Mac, be sure to check out Squid Manager.
the way you present it, you sound like it is better than what any modern browser offers, i.e. caching.
Unless you plan to make the computer running squid an “internet service provider” in your LANs, i honestly dont see the point in installing one more service at your mac.

i don’t understand this is a proxy for mac, or a mac proxy, then why does it not change your internet address? i agree with coward this squid sucks!
I am interested to see this proxy. I am sure that this will help me a lot.
Proxy bypass is a free web proxy that allows people to bypass filters and firewalls blocked for a number of different reasons
