It work fine with curl but not in browser. I get: Possible security risk looking up this domain and when force Unable to connect It would seem an SSL problem. Do it have a solution?

Hi @lollita, at this point browser support for socks5 is not great. I think Edge and Chrome don’t support past socks4, and Firefox now supports socks5, but I’m not sure the authentication works yet.

You may find something like ProxyCap helpful, though. Essentially, it allows you to make applications connect through the proxy you specify, and it supports Socks5. There is another app called Proxifier that could work too.
