The proxies figure (as explained when you hover over it) as 0|15147|0 shows that there are 0 private proxies 15147 public proxies and 0 harvested proxies which is what you would expect if you were just using the public proxy list and you entered around 15k of them. So that alone shows that those are the proxies that are being used.
Also as the pop-up text on the "Check Proxies Every X Mins" controls states that feature should not be used for running with bad proxies as it will result in a lot of wasted time checking bad proxies. A list of 15k proxies will simply not be usable and will result in almost all searches failing, lots of posts failing and a huge amount of wasted time having to check proxies that will never be usable.
If you have a tool to check these proxies then they need to be checked that they are anonymous and can be used for searching, so they must pass Google and Yahoo, otherwise they shouldn't be used. Also if you have a tool like Proxy Goblin or Proxy Multiply then they should be set to constantly check for anonymous and searchable proxies and then output them to a file which NHSEO then loads in with the corresponding "load proxies from file" control. That way you get a fresh working list of proxies instead of a list where "most of them are good" (a.k.a almost all un-usable)
Also in regards to your other post, as stated when you make your first posts all new posts are moderated and that your posts will appear when they have been moderated.
