Dear list,

If I transfer money to wirecard bank outside Germany it says
" Please note that Wirecard is currently not offered in your country."

But I have no problem to do the same when I'm in Germany.

Hence I have installed squid version-3 in a dedicated server located in
Germany. I have configured it to work as an anonymous server with
nsca_auth. Configured firefox to use that proxy and it shows the German
IP. Even I can do my transaction with wirecard.

What still is knocking me is the resource required to run the squid.
That proxy is only required to work as an anonymous so that I can get
the German IP whenever required. IS there any way to cut down the other
features of a standard proxy from squid , so that it will be only an
anonymous proxy ?
What features are you looking to cut?  Why do you feel that Squid is
using a lot of resources?

As I'm only using it as anonymous, I like to disable the other features
like caching etc... etc.....

Caching is disabled either by compiling with "--enable-storeio=null" and specifying "cache_dir null /some/path" in your configuration file, or more simply by using "cache deny all".

Regarding authentication I mean to provide the userid/password in
encrypted form, that's why I'm asking for SSL. Does digest auth do the
same ? please suggest me.
