Well, he stated that an attempt to use http instead failed, so I
wouldn't have expected that any fallback in curl or wget would succeed.
This is why the proxy support is a better solution today. The system
hosting the proxy can be newer and support the newest security
standards for older systems.
Again, why not use that host that you would use for that proxy for
whatever curl/wget transfer you want to do? It seems to be always as a
rather futile endeavor to force something like this onto (Free)DOS when
this is pretty much a non-issue with any more modern, Internet-aware,
operating system. And yes, doing this through a 3rd party proxy is
certainly a less than secure and thus preferred option...
