Ok as requested , my use cases

1) Home usage , through a Smoothwall firewall , which uses Squid in
transparent proxy mode.

2) Work use , unknown proxy type, but probably a squid derivative or M$.
This uses either a manually defined FQDN or IP address or you can use a
proxy.pac file which contains multiple proxy definitions depending on
which country you happen to connect to the corporate network on.
typically on TCP port 8080 or 8000. I could supply the pac file - IP's
changed of course - if that would be useful?

3) Using ssh/corkscrew tunneling through above proxies using a Socks 5
proxy on any TCP port above 1024. This is used for anonymous
communications. This leverages the -D parameter of the ssh applications
on Linux.

Hope this helps, if you need any further information then please just
shout.
