I'm quite aware of things like portsentry, pf (I have an OpenBSD server), ipf etc, but unfortunately this isn't what I'm looking for. I'm not after a firewall or a TCP filter; A proxy server works at a higher level, specifically handling individual protocols. Sure I can use a packet filter to examine traffic on port 80, but a TCP filter doesn't usually know anything about HTTP, it just knows packets. A TCP dump would give me buckets of messy raw data (that would contain, somewhere, the data I'm interested in, but not in any useful way), but it's just presented at the wrong level. It's kind of like using a microscope to read a road map. So, to be clear, I'm looking for an interactive HTTP proxy with a visual interface, not a firewall, NAT router or packet filter. At present the only one of these I know of is the Proxy Workbench product I mentioned. Given how wonderfully useful a tool like this is for developing HTTP clients I'm sure there must be something else.
