Here's my tricky question for this week. :)

I'm doing some web development which requires analysis of responses from
google searches.  Being in New Zealand, some of the google content
(particularly adwords content) is restricted to certain countries, often
just the USA. 

i.e.: someone in the USA is selling widgets to USA customers and so
restricts those adwords using country restriction options in Google
Adwords so they only appear to USA based browsers. 

I have a windows only application (grrrrr) that searches Google
including the adwords data and I need it to reflect what people in the
USA will see - i.e.: the target market for the products we're
developing.  

The easy solution would be to tell that application to use a USA based
web proxy server, only it doesn't have a web proxy option.   

Can anyone suggest a way to have either: 

(1) All outgoing web traffic on the windows client port forwarded
directly to a remote web proxy server.  

I know linux isn't required for this, but someone else on this list
dealing with windoze boxen might have come across a similar situation. 

(2) Configure a linux server as the default gateway for the windows
client and have squid, or ipchains or something capture the outgoing web
traffic from that client and forward it to a specified remote web proxy.
Thanks guys. 

Phill
