That's strange.

POST worked on my machine if the proxy of the browser is directly set to ProxHTTPSProxy without Proxo chained in the middle.

A misunderstanding.
I meant:

Browser's HTTPS -> ProxHTTPSProxy
Browser's HTTP -> Proxo
POST fail

Browser's HTTPS -> Proxo
Browser's HTTP -> Proxo
POST success

I wanted to use the former.

Sure but...

My TOR uses the proxy Polipo.
([^/]++:443& $SET(0=i_proxy:3.) $SETPROXY(127.0.0.1:8081)) and modifying ProxHTTPSProxy.py to use Polipo, sends HTTPS to TOR.
|$SET(0=i_proxy:3.) $SETPROXY(127.0.0.1:8118), sends HTTP to TOR.

Unless... Can I remove Polipo?
I was in a hurry and didn't try it but will.

I haven't compared the files yet.
I'd like to know why this one works.

I've been fortunate. I rarely have problems and am not worried by the old dlls. I too have spent too much time on this (and other issues), however.
When last looked at, Python didn't seem like a solution and while you and I may be able to make it work... A filtering proxy needs users' input (some more than others tho).

Now I may have reason and machine to play with Python.

Do you have any opinions of http://www.py2exe.org/ ?
