WHEN TO USE IT?

1) When the only way to get "outside" from your LAN is through proxy server.

2) To get out from behind restrictive firewall which filters outgoing ports.

3) To use two (or more) proxies in chain: like: your_host <--> proxy1 <--> proxy2 <--> target_host

4) To "proxify" some program with no proxy support built-in (like telnet)

5) Access intranet from outside via proxy.

6) To use DNS behind proxy.

7) To access hidden tor onion services.
