When you use a proxy server with Google Chrome or another Web browser, your Web browser sends all your Web browsing traffic to the proxy, which acts as an intermediary between your computer and the Web servers. A proxy can cache frequently requested Web content, deny access to specific content or log Web browsing traffic. Some networks may require a proxy server to access the Web. Google Chrome uses your system-wide proxy settings, configured in the Windows Internet Properties dialog.
