DeleGate

I didn't really get to know much of it, but it has some features which I =
find useful, not for heavy weight use, but on my laptop.

I like was the way it lays out it's http and ftp cache according  to the =
url.  It's probably not as efficient as squid, but it does make it nice a=
nd easy to set up a local search facility to find pages in it's cache and=
 translate the url's so everything gets fetched using the original URL an=
d links up nicely.

Also, I find it's logging better for squid for looking at exactly what's =
going through in the headers while browsing the web, which has been usefu=
l for debugging on occasion.  (Can someone reccomend a more general tool =
for analyzing tcp sessions and presenting in legible form)

I can't vouch one way or the other for how it performs doing  more seriou=
s work.
