It  depends  on protocol used. SOCKSv5 doesn't support this feature, but
some  proprietary protocols do. For example MS proxy client always sends
executable  name  to  MS  Proxy  or  ISA server. This information is not
reliable,  of  cause,  because  firewall  client software usually do not
check executable file consistency, but in future feature like that could
be added to firewall client software.
