[General] FT Cache Compromised (Again)

[Bashar Al-Abdulhadi]

having local machine when accessing the internet via your ISP via port 
80 it will be triggered by your ISP's caching system and wwill be 
filtered again, so no real use of it, thats why when you put a remote 
box to connect to it via non-default http port then that remote box goes 
to the internet


for example from your local machine do wget www.skype.com it will show 
FT's blocked page it will be the same when squid/proxy access the 
internet from the machine
