Web ProxyServer in C# and VB

Introduction

Web Proxy Server is HTTP proxy server written in C#. It is Multithreaded so many clients can access the web through this WebProxy Server.

Technology Used

System.NET, System.IO ,System.Threading and C#

About the sample

This sample is a console application which acts as a multithreaded WebProxy server.If you want to use any specific port to Listen then use that as a command line parameter other wise default 8089 port is used. It is multithreade Proxy Server that means multiple client can communicate with Proxy server.  

Good luck and Enjoy C#
