How to check mail in mail programs (such as Outlook) via CGI proxy?
Unlike other types of proxy servers CGI proxies have considerably wider abilities as for information filtering. They can: • Prohibit execution of active content (scripts) on a page – JavaScript, etc. • Prohibit (or to leave only for itself, without passing to a client) cookie files • Encrypt URL to which a request is addressed. For example, your request to the http://www.yahoo.com/ through CGI proxy in an address bar you will see something like that: http://www.cgi-proxy.com/abcd104dflsjuywe34sdfispd345klksfdsl Thus a system administrator viewing server logs with analysis purposes can not determine what server you have reached (www.sex.com or www.altavista.com).
