Is there a plugin for nessus that can check for open proxies in the range you
specify?

See <http://www.nessus.org/plugins/index.php?view=search>. Searching
plugin name for "proxy" turns up a number of hits, including:

  http://www.nessus.org/plugins/index.php?view=single&id=10195

I'm not sure, though, if that's what you're looking for as your question
is a bit vague.

Thanks for your answer.
Well i would like to be able to check whether a machine is an open proxy,
i.e. by that proxy i can access websites by specifying that machine as
proxy in my browser. Hmm right now i cannot access nessus.org, not even
from three locations, so i can't look at the moment.

Yes, the proxy_use.nasl plugin (ID #10195) is what you want. proxy_use.nasl checks if the remote proxy accepts requests coming from the Nessus scanner.
