CGI Proxy

Learn more about the CGI_proxy. A CGI script acts as an HTTP or FTP proxy. Thank to it, you can retrieve any resource that is accessible from the server it runs on. This is useful when access from your server is limited, but you can reach a server that in turn can reach others that you can't. The big plus and the other goal is that the user is kept as anonymous as possible from any servers. Common uses include: anonymous proxies similar to The Anonymizer, other personal uses, VPN-like functionality, and others. It's very simple to install, and very configurable.
When the HTML resource is retrieved, it's links are modified so that they all point back through the same proxy, including images, form submissions, and everything else. Using the proxy is transparent, you forget it's there.
Configurable options include text-only support (to save bandwidth), selective cookie and script removal, simple ad filtering, access restriction by server, custom encoding of target URLs and cookies, and more-- there are more than 50 options so far. It can run under mod_perl unchanged. It requires Perl 5.6.1 or later.
