Proxy Switcher is a small tray icon type utility that allows you to select whether Windows and Mozilla Firefox should use a proxy server for Internet access in a couple of clicks.

No more digging around in the Internet Options screen for Windows or the Advanced tab in Firefox. Simply right click on the tray icon and choose ´Home´ for a direct connection to the Internet or ´Office´ to use the proxy, there is even an ´Auto´ option which will change the setting for you when you connect to your work/home or work VPN network.

Proxy Switcher even informs your Windows environment of the changes so you don´t need to restart applications such as Internet Explorer or MSN Messenger when the proxy settings change.
