I tried this but my wallets wouldn't connect to peers. Which proxies did you use?
Basically "socks proxies".
Well, I checked the bitcoin's wiki page;
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin#Command-line_argumentsIt was saying that I needed to use Socks proxies.
" -proxy=<ip:port> Connect through SOCKS proxy"
So I went to the hide my ass,
http://proxylist.hidemyass.com/and filtered the proxies according to the protocol.
Probably you've tried with http(s) proxies that's why it didn't work for you...
