Downloading HTTPort 3.0 from our website was free. From the users' point of view, the advantage of the software is this program is stable, however, some people mark that the weak side of HTTPort is it shows error messages. Our antivirus scan shows that this download is clean. This program is included in System Utilities. This free tool was originally designed by Technology Networks LLC.
From the developer:
HTTPort allows to use virtually any Internet software from behind an HTTP proxy. Local software connects to HTTPort at local host as if it was the remote server it needs. HTTPort creates a tunnel through a proxy and runs the connection through it. This is absolutely transparent for both local software and remote 'tunneled' server. The new version has a built-in SOCKS server, which now makes it possible to use ICQ and FTP directly through HTTPort.
You may want to check out more software, such as EasyGPRS, Schmap or CyberPrinter, which might be similar to HTTPort.
