A new proxy monitoring section is now available in the Scan4ban dashboard. The feature is available to all users, with no separate beta enrollment required.
You can add your proxies and monitor:
• availability and response time;
• authentication errors;
• exit IP changes;
• recovery after an outage;
• connection speed when speed checks are enabled.
HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, SOCKS5, and MTProto proxies are supported. You can add proxies individually or import a list at once.
We are continuing to test the new feature in real-world scenarios, so your feedback is especially important. Try proxy monitoring and tell us:
• whether setup was straightforward;
• whether statuses and check results are clear;
• whether the available intervals meet your needs;
• whether you encountered false alerts;
• which capabilities you would like us to add.
Send comments, ideas, and examples of unusual behavior to us on Telegram: https://t.me/scan4ban_support
Your experience will help us make proxy monitoring more accurate, reliable, and convenient.

If your domain suddenly loses traffic or users start complaining about "red screens," the cause usually comes down to one of three areas: content, technical setup, or reputation.
What's Actually on the Domain
Filters look at what visitors actually see, not your intentions. Malicious scripts, phishing forms disguised as other brands, auto-downloading files, aggressive push notifications, endless popups — all of this dramatically increases your chances of getting blocked by both search engines and antivirus software.
Technical Side
Even with relatively clean content, a domain can get flagged because of its environment. Sharing an IP with spammers, cheap hosting packed with dozens of shady neighbors, long and obscure redirect chains — filters treat all of this as a sign that someone's trying to hide something or dodge moderation.
User Complaints
Feedback is a separate issue: browser reports, complaints from ad platforms, copyright holder takedown requests. Even a technically clean site can end up with risk labels if it racks up enough complaints over time.
Niche
Gambling, betting, adult content, crypto, and other gray-area industries operate under heightened scrutiny. It only takes a small mistake in your setup or creatives to get your domain throttled.

How to remove a domain ban
If your domain is already under restrictions, you don’t necessarily have to write it off. Often it can be cleaned up and put back into use — especially if it’s an important address for you.
1. Identify who is blocking it
First, you need the full picture:
- whether there are flags in Google Safe Browsing and Yandex Safe Browsing;
- whether the domain or IP is listed in Roskomnadzor (RKN) registries;
- whether mobile operators are blocking the domain;
- how antivirus vendors and browser filters classify it.
Doing this manually takes time and it’s easy to miss something. With scan4ban.com, you can do it in a single run: the service shows your domain status across the major systems.
2. Remove obvious risks on the website
Next, eliminate all trigger factors:
- disable suspicious scripts and third-party embeds you don’t fully trust;
- shorten redirect chains and remove problematic hops;
- check uploaded files and outbound links for malware;
- bring the homepage to a normal, legitimate state (text content, privacy policy, contact details, reasonable content).
The goal is that during a manual review the site looks “real” — not like a temporary traffic-cloaking placeholder.
3. Submit official review requests
Once the obvious issues are fixed:
- submit a security review request in Google Search Console and Yandex.Webmaster;
- use the dispute forms on antivirus vendors’ websites to challenge false positives;
- for RKN blocks, check the stated legal basis, fix the specific violation, and then follow the standard procedure.
Important: submit these requests only after real changes have been made to the site — not “just to try your luck.”
4. Monitor after the restrictions are lifted
After you receive confirmation that the bans have been removed:
- re-check the domain (via the same sources or via scan4ban.com);
- restore traffic gradually and watch for complaints;
- keep the domain under continuous monitoring.
With scan4ban.com, you can:
- do a one-time check to confirm the domain is clean again;
- enable regular checks: the service scans search engines, RKN, mobile operators, and antivirus - databases and sends Telegram alerts if the domain status changes.
