Hi,

I am looking for a solution for an anonymizer problem. This is the
situation:

1. I regularly access arbitrary internet sites from unsecure working
stations, i. e. working stations located in networks that I do not know,
e. g. public internet access stations.

2. I have an own server in the internet.

Now I would like to use my own server as a proxy to the internet sites I
access from the unsecure networks:

1. The local web browser should access my proxy using an encrypted
connection.

2. My proxy should forward the requests coming from my browser to the
final recipients.

3. In effect, only the encrypted connection to my own server will be
visible in the unsecure network.

My question: How can I realize this? I prefer open source software
running on linux.

The only proxy I know is squid. Can I use it in my scenario?

Thanks,
Magnus

Take a look at Privoxy (http://www.privoxy.org/). This is what I use &
its also a good web content filter (banners, pop-ups, etc...).
