So why would you need IP2Proxy? Because proxy servers can be used to cover up fraud, many e-commerce sites have lots of charge backs. The IP2Proxy is a system that updates daily a list of proxy’s that have been activated in the past 24 hours, so you can identify those who may be preying upon your site.

Just automate the process every once a day and import the proxy list into your site, and they will be blacklisted.

It will then make a list of the ones that are released to download area every 24 hours.
