Running SAproxy

The SAproxy program icon depicts a document being examined by a magnifying glass. When you first install SAproxy, you need to start the SAproxy program from the Start menu or by double clicking on the SAproxy desktop shortcut.

By default, SAproxy will install SAproxy into the Windows startup folder so that SAproxy will automatically start whenever Windows is rebooted. This is one of the options given during installation.

Once SAproxy is running, a smaller version of the SAproxy program icon will appear in your system tray in the lower right portion of the screen (to the left of the clock). If the SAproxy icon does not appear in the system tray, then SAproxy is not running.
