This software enables the establishment of an HTTP tunnel through a straightforward client/server setup.
To use it, you simply run a local instance of the HTTP Tunnel app in 'client' mode, which connects to another instance running in 'server' mode at the remote end of your desired tunnel. Once the tunnel is established, you can connect to the local client end using the application whose traffic you want to tunnel. All communications are then wrapped in HTTP, allowing them to pass through the firewall unimpeded.
What's more, the HTTPTunnel app can also work via an HTTP proxy, either explicitly or transparently. In summary, if you need a reliable, easy-to-use way to tunnel TCP socket connections over HTTP, HTTPTunnel is well worth checking out.
