Done.
Writing to the correct list I suppose ?

Proceeding without knowing Perl :-)

Done

Done

After this a GUI comes up
In that GUI there is box for configuration

Selected UAE Dialup

Results from within the window are sent to you by direct mail

The POP up window lists many proxies as "not" responding and so on

***Before*** "Choosing config. & start services" I also tried 
perl findProxy.pl file://c:/listOfProxies.txt

This listofproxies was a list I had

Results from within the window are sent to you by direct mail 

Further questions
------------------
1) Local proxy is accepting connections from **just** my own firewall
!! I am unable to use other working proxies. At least I haven't found
out how to merge the results from find proxy into local proxy :-)

2) Please tell me what are complicated web pages ?

3) How do I add more proxies

4) Does anyone have a working list of proxies that can work with Local
Proxy
