[JDEV] http proxy support

[Justin Georgeson]

I'm working on a client, adding support for different proxy types. I 
have SOCKS v4 and v5 and HTTPS CONNECT, but I still have users who talk 
about HTTP proxy, making references to MSN Messenger. I haven't been 
able to find anything relating to a standard way to do firewall 
traversal using an HTTP proxy. I'm not even sure what I should be 
looking for. I haven't been able to get information from the users in 
question regarding what their HTTP proxy is (so I can contact the vendor 
who makes it to find out how to make my client support it). Can anyone 
give me any information about adding HTTP proxy support other than HTTPS 
CONNECT tunneling? Ideally finding out what method MSN Messenger uses 
(since that works through their firewall/proxy). Thanks in advance.
