Should be elite so TNT doesnt see your real IP
I use this bad boy to double check (you need an account to see links)
And yes put it in both if youre going to be logging into the account to access it and use a program with it
hopefully , i put this in the right spot .
any way's .
when using a proxy for neopet's it has to be an Elite proxy right ?
secondly when setting up a proxy do you have to put the elite proxy in fire fox and the program at the same time ?
- or -
can you just use the proxy for the program & not the web ?
i am understanding proxies a whole lot more now but that is my main question b/c that is the part i get confused
with & also b/c i no there are a ton of way's to use a proxy XD will +rep if any one can answer this question ....
Thank you a head of time ....

thanks :*
i'll stress the point of checking your proxies, I wanted to use proxies from Brazil that said they were elite.. but when I checked them my original IP was showing. be careful. I always check the proxy before logging in and before logging out. Measure twice, cut once

Elite is the best you can use, yes. However is it necessary? That's a personal point of view. I'll take a moment to explain the anonymity levels of proxies:
Transparent: Detects proxy is being used, detects real IP
Anonymous: Detects proxy is being used, does not detect real IP
Elite: Does not detect proxy is being used, does not detect real IP
Sometimes if I'm having a hard time finding an elite proxy for a specific area for my own accounts, I'll go with anonymous. They are generally faster and less picked over than their elite counterparts.

If you're not going to use Firefox for the moment to access your account, then you do not need to put the proxy into firefox at all.
Example: I feel like score-sending today, but I'm not going to actually login to the account on Firefox. I would not put the proxy in firefox, I would only put the proxy into Majin SS. There's no need to put it into firefox. You could but you wouldn't be accomplishing anything.
It's no different than if you weren't going to score-send, you were just playing on your proxied account through firefox... Why would you download Majin and put a proxy in it for shits and giggles.
Abso-fucking-lutely. And check them everytime you use them. I have one that I use exclusively for my main that I have not paid for. However, these servers do change IPs and they do eventually retire the IPs for proxies. The ISP will then give the IP to someone else, and your "Canada" proxy could change into a "Oregon" proxy. It's annoying, and if you're paranoid about this sort of shit, then do your research every time.

Sometime the proxies will say like level 1, level 2 etc, heres a little guide for that.
Transparent Proxies (Level 3) - also known as caching proxies, doesn't provide you with any anonymity. The sole purpose of transparent proxies is to cache the data that is exchanged between the servers. The web server knows your real IP addresss and it knows that you're using a proxy.
Anonymous Proxies (Level 2) - hides your real IP address but the server may know that you're connecting over a proxy because the proxy sends additional headers such as HTTP_VIA or HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR. In some cases, these headers can reveal your real IP address and if that's the case, then such proxy gets marked as transparent. If one of those proxy headers contain any other IP address that's not yours, then the proxy will still be considered to be anonymous.
Elite Proxies (Level 1) - also known as high-anonymity proxies, such proxies provide absolute anonymity. The server doesn't know your real IP address and it doesn't know that you're using a proxy.
Yea, pretty much what @(you need an account to see links) said xD
He beat meh to it.

Thank you guys I will +rep you all & seem like the more I play with them the more I'm understanding lol I'm practicing now with score sending so when I move up a rank & I get into auto buyin I would already no what to do
