Hi,
I have a dialup box and just for fun I'm thinking of setting up a
http/ftp proxy server.  It would be partly usefull in that I would have
an inter-user web-cache.  I have a few questions though:

If I download something then cancel, will the proxy server thing stop
downloading too?
Does the proxy send the file to the browser as it's being downloaded or
does it sent it to the browser once the whole file is done?
Can I get my proxy to use my ISP's web-cache?

Thats about it really..

TIA
