If you can connect directly to let's say https://www.fortify.net
your HTTP proxy allows the CONNECT method. Otherwise it would be a
man-in-the-middle.

Your proxy might block HTTP CONNECT to destination ports other than
443 (which is pretty stupid). If HTTP CONNECT to 443 is allowed you
can use simpleproxy and connect to Kurt's pserver on port 443.
