okay, I'm trying to get an idea of network security. But there is a little problem: I don't really look through the different distinctions between proxy servers. on one hand there are application proxies and SOCKS proxies, right? but on the other hand some also distinguish between HTTP proxies, SOCKS proxies and CGI proxies.... so what is what? are HTTP proxies and CGI proxies always application proxies and can't a SOCKS proxy be an application proxy as well? I'm waiting desperately for help...
HELP!
