Public proxies are fine for searching, and will be even better with the next update of NHSEO where it will do a re-search when the search failed due to a bad proxy. The thing with searching proxies is that you want lots of them so that you can run lots of threads to get as many targets as possible, with private proxies this can be very expensive as just 100 proxies will cost around $150 whereas a tool like No Hands Proxies can get you 100+ google passed proxies with just a single purchase.
I wouldn't ever use public proxies for posting though as a post can take up to about 8 page requests to be a success and then a further page request to do the link check so if any of those fail due to the proxy (public proxies are never massively reliable) then the link post will be a fail and won't result in a link.
So with NHP you can easily get away with just 5-20 private proxies and still be running 10 or more search proxies while getting a reliable poster.
@fibercarbon - if you are getting complaints from your proxy provider for using them for posting then you are using the wrong type of proxy providers, companies such as SQUID proxies or buyproxies.org (or one of the many other decent proxy providers) would never care about any complaints they receive from using the proxies for link posting. I used buyproxies for over a year in the past and have been using SQUID proxies for around 2 years up till now and have never had a single complaint from either and I have been running NHSEO the whole time.
