Hi Geoff,
If I understood Eli correctly, it causes problems when you need to
upload to a remote site and are routed to your ISP's transparent proxy
instead.
It is likely that no one did that while you were at Hebrew
U. Certainly no one does this at BFM.
If that is what is happening (any packet, not just HTTP GETs, is
routed to the proxy), this is a rather blunt instrument indeed.
