SOCKS is just a protocol for proxy.

You can design your own protocol or use existing. If you can you should better develop your own protocol because SOCKS protocol is trash.

SOCKS protocol RFC:
ietf.org/rfc/rfc1928.txt

You have to write your own code.

I mean, I've never tried this before, but when you think it through it's actually somewhat complex.

Http works in a completely different way to TCP. Where TCP is always connected, Http is request based rather than stream based. Sure, you remember sessions, but if you're looking to have a constant connection open to another server, then relaying messages backwards and forwards, it's definitely far from as simple as setting a proxy up.

Actually, i'd be fairly interested in this project (Creating a ProxySocket system, although it would require a base server etc).

HTTP is a software-layer-protocol built upon TCP.

HTTP connects, sends everything it needs, receives response and closes connection because it doesn't need to do anything else.

I am aware. I realise it was written a little incorrectly, but the fact that the connection is completely different means that its just not feasible in the way that a normal proxy works.

I suggest you use an application like Proxifier for that purpose.
