Do you have a recommendation for a novice as to which site is best?
Thanks again for the help with this, I wish I could do the ping tests now but like I said, I have a 12 hr night shift in front of me and as things are working fine at present, I'd really rather start testing when I'm "fresh" lol.
If you could recommend the best proxy site, the one that you expert types use, that'd be a big help though.
Thanks again for all your help, hope you all have a lovely evening.

at 'expert types' - an 'expert' is someone who has already made all the mistakes & can now pass on how to work around or avoid the main problems
On that basis i would say, in my opinion, it is best to try using the ntl proxies, ideally 'transparently', but if necessary set one as 'explicit'. Personally I would avoid using proxies external to the NTL network as there are potential security issues.
In my case I have found the Nottingham proxies, which my connections uses 'transparently', by default, have been very reliable, lately.
Thanks for your good wishes
