After a quick looksee through ncat_proxy.c, it appears as if the http
proxy only supports the 'CONNECT' request while firefox appears to
want to use the 'GET' request. I don't know hot to get firefox to use
'CONNECT' but I think this is working as intended for now.

I agree, ncat could use some more debug output, a quick grep reveals
that it never uses more then two levels of verbosity and only has
about 26 messages.

Cheers,
