RE: http-open-proxy.nse question

["Laskin, Oleg V." <Oleg.Laskin () nemours org>]

Your best bet for understanding the script, is to open the http-open-proxy.nse script in a text editor of your choice 
and look at the code behind it. You will see the methods it uses and what responses you should be looking for in case 
of a negative or positive results. 

For instance, it looks for specific ports and headers so that it can determine the type of proxy that is being detected 
and will present a specific result based on that finding.

Subject: http-open-proxy.nse question

Hi All,

I just read an article over at SANS,

https://isc.sans.edu/forums/diary/Do+you+have+your+network+perimeter+secured+against+downloading+malicious+content+/16676

It uses the
nmap --script http-open-proxy.nse 192.168.0.0/24 script to check for free proxies.

Looking at the result of the scan, I am having a bit of trouble figuring out how its shows free proxies.
I just see a bunch of open ports.  What am I missing?

Many thanks,
-T
