CERN's httpd is a full-fledged http server implementation which can be
set up as a proxy server. They also have a SOCKS-compliant version
which can be set up on a non-firewall machine, however I hav'nt tried
that yet.
The proxy can be configured as a caching proxy, i.e it will enable
caching of documents for faster response. (I've done this recently..)
