...

Get some sleep or try it yourself?

The documentation says

However, David Fishburn says: This did not work for me under WinXP - ActiveState Perl 5.6, but it DOES work on WinXP ActiveState Perl 5.8.

I haven't tried HTTP::Proxy::Engine::Threaded which uses threads and not fork

But yes, I've check that it works, my notes

it works, but make sure when you switch firefox in options+advanced+network+manual proxy, to remove localhost from the "no proxy for" list

Alt+Tools
- Advanced
- Network
- Connection Settings
- Manual proxy configuration:
No proxy for: localhost, 127.0.0.1


about:config
network.proxy.http;localhost
network.proxy.http_port;8080
network.proxy.type;1
network.proxy.no_proxies_on;localhost, 127.0.0.1
