FoxyProxy substitute for Internet Explorer


I don't have direct network access to the linux host I'm debugging PHP/Javascript code on. I SSH to a jump box, then use FoxyProxy to tunnel my firefox requests through my SSH session using SOCKS forwarding.

I want to be able to debug the javascript code in IE, but unfortunately my FoxyProxy setup only works through the FireFox extension. Is there a quick and dirty solution that will allow me to tunnel my web traffic (for certain hosts!) through a proxy?


Solution

  • For SOCKS forwarding and IE, use FreeCap. Enables pretty much any application to use a SOCKS proxy, is free (as in beer) and reliable (even allows proxy chaining).
