Yes, they are supported (blocked). Any web-proxies what I checked was blocked without problems. If you will find some new which will be skipped, then just write a list of them there.
Also all proxy-servers like (192.168.1.1:80) which users can add into web-broswer settings, will be blocked if they use standart ports (80,8080,3128), also you can add your own ports in plugin settings.

Hm, I am doubt that PHP have something for this. In any case it will be needed to wait in real time, but the question - just wait, or make it as AJAX request and show to the user some picture or something else during checking.
P.S. Of course it is possible, but for this we must have our own server, where we can launch some other program, written on C++ or so, which will get users from DB and make checks. It will be transparent for users, but it will be separate program for the server, not just an plugin for VB).

Also if we will make checking for proxy even after registration, every 1,2,5 mins, then probably it is not very nice idea, because every time server will make many requests to its users, so if you will have many users, then there can be situation, when server will be overloaded.
