Probably not. It depends on the client software however. > 2) Is a socks proxy server required in addition to squid? It makes chances higher more things will work. MS Proxy is basically a combination of a HTTP proxy and a SOCKS proxy, plus a SOCKS client for Windows. It is not actually using SOCKS but a MS protocol which goes slightly beyond what SOCKSv5 can do but not far (SOCKSv5 has some issues with incoming sessions and UDP). > 3) If so, what open source socks server would you recommend. Dante is a reasonable one, but not alone. Here is a list of free open source Socks servers in no particular order: Dante: http://www.inet.no/dante/ Simple Socks Server: http://home.t-online.de/home/Andreas.Steinmetz/ (also has free Windows client) Socks Server 5: http://digilander.libero.it/matteo.ricchetti/ Antinat: http://yallara.cs.rmit.edu.au/~malsmith/products/antinat/ windsock: http://www.wiw.org/~drz/software.html there may be more.
