    .com of course

    but still you can get a bunch of .info if you are planning on do a lot of proxies.

    If you are planning to start a network then you may start with .info [ cheap ] as proxies have small life as they get banned from schools etc but yea ! .com sounds Good :D :D

    I started my first proxy with a .com. You can't run a proxy on shared hosting by the way. By the time its gets popular, it will be taking up so many resources your host will shut it down. You need a VPS or dedicated server.
