How safe is it to use Proxy Scrapper on my main work computer?
I'm not very tech-savvy. How safe is it to use the program not on a server but on my main computer where I have all my work and personal data, files, where I make bank purchases, store cryptocurrency etc. Considering most of the free stuff/proxies is bait to get some kind of profit, I think a lot of proxies with viruses, trojan, etc. Does this pose a threat to the computer or does everything run in isolation and not go beyond the program sandbox?
If anyone has a clue, could you please advise?
As an option, I see a solution to create a separate instance of Windows in VirtualBox and run the program from there - it looks secure.
