YES! THANK YOU! I tried SocksCap, that failed, causing steam to crash and generate strange error reports. (It might work if I play around with it more, but I just googled for other solutions...) However, I found ProxyCap, which worked like a charm. It's incredible easy, took all of 10 seconds to set up after installing, and it does exactly what I want: forwards ALL internet traffic through my tunnel (or any other proxy, for that matter). Not only that, but I can specify which programs or IPs or Ports to forward if I so desire. I can't thank you enough Dirkjr, both of your posts helped me a lot, and led me to a perfect fix. I'll edit my original post to show exactly what I did, if anyone ever want to do something like this again. I have yet to test this on my filtered WiFi connection but I'm confident it will work. 1 Link to comment

I updated the first post with a tutorial on what I did to get this working. Feel free to tell me about anything I should add, or if there are mistakes. Link to comment

I've followed it to where I believe most everything is working, but trying to connect to a server in TF2 doesn't seem to work. Steam connects and updates, but I can see any servers or connect to a specific (working) server if I type it in manually to the console. Ideas?? BTW, I'm using the 30day trial of ProxyCap and I have Steam.exe and HL2.exe in the routing rules Edited March 2, 2011 by entourage Link to comment
