An email I got today from a company called ProxyMate. Dont know if you have heard of them, but look at the improvements they have made to their Internet service, sound familiar......
Dear ProxyMate Customer,
Thank you for your participation in the ProxyMate beta test.
Our mission is to offer a reliable service that enables you to have privacy while web browsing and convenience while filling out information. We had some glitches as we have transitioned from the LPWA technical demonstration to the ProxyMate Beta test. We appreciate your patience and feedback during this ramp-up phase.
We are happy to announce that we have made some significant strides to improve the service over the past several weeks. We have implemented a multi-server hardware architecture to improve the speed and have added a number of new features:
- Lazy Login: For your convenience, you no longer have to enter your user name and password every time you launch the browser. You still have privacy protection and can view the ProxyMate bar without logging in. However, you do need to log in to modify your default settings or access personalized services.
- AutoFill: ProxyMate automatically enters your user name, password, and other personal information on webpages, so you don't have to remember your various usernames and passwords. AutoFill is extremely simple to use.
- JavaScript Filtering: ProxyMate requires that JavaScript stay enabled in your browser, so that the ProxyMate bar can be correctly placed in the browser window. For added security and privacy, ProxyMate can now screen out JavaScript programs coming from external websites.
- Privacy On/Off: You now have the ability to control your privacy settings. When privacy service is turned on, ProxyMate filters communication to the web sites to protect your identity. When you turn service off, we let communication flow through the proxy without some of the filtering.
- Personalization Page: ProxyMate now lets you specify your personal browsing preferences and change your password and e-mail profile.
These new features are in addition to ProxyMate's earlier features, such as Alias Generation, Search Bar, and Cool Sites.
We appreciate your continued support. Please feel free to contact us with any suggestions.
Sincerely,
Robert Lee CEO, ProxyMate
P.S. We would greatly appreciate your filling out our quick User Survey, at bin.proxymate.com -- your feedback will help us continue to improve ProxyMate and to give you better service.
