Description: tunnel TCP traffic through a HTTP proxy
 HTTP clients (web browsers) use HTTP proxies to request web pages; the
 HTTP server just forwards those request to the destination server. All
 the negotiation is done via the HTTP protocol, which is designed just
 to carry HTTP requests and no generic (TCP/IP) traffic. That is why you
 can't (normally) use Internet applications beside your web server if
 you are behind a HTTP proxy.
 .
 That is what desproxy is good for. Desproxy is a TCP tunnel, which
 means desproxy can forward TCP/IP traffic via a HTTP proxy. Desproxy
 uses a HTTP/1.1 method (CONNECT) to establish TCP/IP connections on
 demand. CONNECT is used for SSL connections when accessing to secure
 sites, so if you can access sites that support SSL (www.hotmail.com for
 example) you can use desproxy.
Description-it: instrada traffico TCP attraverso un proxy HTTP
 I client HTTP (browser web) usano i proxy HTTP per richiedere pagine web;
 il server HTTP gira semplicemente queste richieste al server di
 destinazione. Tutta la negoziazione avviene tramite il protocollo HTTP, che
 è progettato solo per trasportare richieste HTTP e non traffico generico
 (TCP/IP). Per questa ragione (normalmente) non si possono usare
 applicazioni Internet oltre al proprio web server se si è dietro un proxy HTTP.
 .
 A questo serve desproxy. Desproxy è un tunnel TCP, questo significa che
 desproxy può instradare traffico TCP/IP attraverso un proxy HTTP. Desproxy
 usa un metodo HTTP/1.1 (CONNECT) per stabilire connessioni TCP/IP a
 richiesta. CONNECT viene usato per le connessioni SSL quando si accede a
 siti sicuri, quindi: se si può accedere a siti che usano SSL (per esempio
 www.hotmail.com) si può usare desproxy.
