thanks for the hint. Isn't Socks like NAT with authentication (in the result)? 
Does Socks offer any kind of filtering on the application-layer?
Am I wrong in my assumption that a "real" application proxy can offer more
security e.g. by not allowing to misuse open ports for any app on non-standard 
ports?
