When are proxies used and not used by Scrapebox?

In some cases scrapebox will not use proxies even if the use proxies box is checked.  This is because some elements have no need for proxies and it would only slow things down.  To this end this FAQ shows you what elements will and will not use proxies if the use proxies box is checked.

That is to say, I am going to assume the the use proxies box IS checked, below will tell you if scrapebox will ignore that, or if it will use the proxies.
