image ssl - ProxRocks - Apr. 18, 2014 01:58 PM
90+ percent of the time, when i encounter ssl "cert crap" warnings, they're due to an IMAGE trying to be brought in...
in the past, i've been simply able to bring the image in WITHOUT ssl - ie, bring it in as http // domain // image.gif INSTEAD OF httpS // domain // image.gif and also INSTEAD OF bringing it in as "half ssl" http // https-px-.domain // image.gif
it seems that web designers are catching on and no longer allow httpS // domain // image.gif to be accessed via http // domain // image.gif
sooo...
i'd like to try something different, anybody know of any SSL PROXIES that are "url-based" ???
i'd like to try to start bringing those ssl-only images in as http // proxy?url= httpS // domain // image.gif
any advice/assistance?

I wonder...
assuming that you are using some Internet Explorer shell, does it have and have you disabled "Warn about certificate address mismatch"?
In IE it is under "Internet Options" >> "Advanced".

There have been public cgi proxies that used this format. Now, I find that the final destination is usually obfuscated so rewritting the links could be difficult and attempts to traverse http to https are often rejected.
google.com/search?q=public+cgi+proxy+https
rosinstrument.com/cgi-proxy.htm
webefree.nl/ (a random example)
Then there might be the need for proper referers and cookies.
If you are willing to give up filtering of images:
If the host is unique to the images, you can try bypassing the image host, via the Proxomitron or a PAC file.
If the url's path must be inspected, I don't think it is supported in IE6+ PAC routine and a Proxomitron header filter should cause a browser warning (default settings).
Hmm, I have never tried prefacing the image's host in the page's html, catching the request, $RDIR to the correct url, and then disabling filtering with $FILTER(False).
https://itsajpg.ssl.gstatic.com >> $RDIR(https://ssl.gstatic.com) $FILTER(False)
HTH

yes, doesn't "do" anything IF chained to Proxo, with or without the "1.1 through proxy" setting...
it hasn't since IE7 / XP SP2
