    No more CAPTCHAs in Rank Tracker!?

    Just read on another forum that there are now built-in proxies in Rank Tracker? Strange thing, I haven't heard about it before, cause working around Google bans in Rank Tracker is a real PITA...

    However, I just tested the new feature and it seems that it really works - not a single CAPTCHA spit out!

    To enable it, click Preferences - Search Safety Settings and tick (Beta) Use built-in proxies.

    Let me know if it does the same for you, since I wonder if I could stop paying for my proxies

    I haven't tried this setting but will have a look at it while watching to ensure the process is Ok. There is some warning verbiage pertaining to how this setting "may cause some other Search Safety setting to be disable for Google and Bing, so please use this option carefully." I don't know exactly what this means other than one feature may cause an issue with another which may be a trade-off.

    Any Search Settings that you may otherwise have in effect if logged ito your Google account, such as SafeSearch filters and Blocking unwanted results, will be inoperative.

    I've never really used those other ones anyway. The only thing that has worked for me so far is private proxies.
