A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource, available from a different server. The proxy server evaluates the request according to its filtering rules. For example, it may filter traffic by IP address or protocol. If the request is validated by the filter, the proxy provides the resource by connecting to the relevant server and requesting the service on behalf of the client. A proxy server may optionally alter the client's request or the server's response, and sometimes it may serve the request without contacting the specified server. In this case, it 'caches' responses from the remote server, and returns subsequent requests for the same content directly.A proxy server has four purposes:    * To keep machines behind it anonymous (mainly for security).[1]    * To speed up access to a resource (via caching). It is commonly used to cache web pages from a web server.[2]    * To censor network services or content.    * To forge transmitted content before delivery, e.g. to insert advertisements.A proxy server that passes requests and replies unmodified is usually called a gateway or sometimes tunneling proxy.A proxy server can be placed in the user's local computer or at various points between the user and the destination servers or the Internet. A reverse proxy is a proxy used as a front-end to accelerate and cache in-demand resources (such as a web page).Source: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_server" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_server</a></blockquote>
