"Unlike the Web Proxy, the WinSock Proxy component provides extended,
transparent functionality past the HTTP, FTP gopther, &SSL protocol
suite into a wide range of non-Web protocols such as streaming audio &
video. Whereas the Web Proxy requires explicit client knowledge of the
proxy, the WinSock Proxy operates transparently without any modification
to the clients program's protocol."
Although I'm still unsure of the exactly what you are trying to do, I
think the answer is yes. The WinSock Proxy allows you to add service
ports so I believe you could add in HTTP, Gopher and others if you
wanted.
"Simplify - There is no value in complexity, it's too difficult to
manage."
