Oh, and I completely forgot to toss a link his way, but Kevin Smith of electricanvil.com is working on a Java PersonalWebProxy project also. With AgentFrank, I’ve been leaning toward patching the core together as quickly as possible to enable the plugins and scripting I wanted to play with. But it looks like Kevin’s spending more time carefully architecting the core using Jakarta Phoenix & some homebrew proxy work. Would be nice to borrow from his work soon.
Who else has code out there that could be assimilated? :)

Well… considering that “Frank” is already 18 MB over-weighted… what about a drastic diet instead?-)
Avalon and Phoenix rocks, it takes a bit of time till the whole idea and how it works click in but then there is no way back :)
We did this way DataStore (Phoenix) and we are heavily using Avalon (the framework) to some other projects to.
What’s wrong with using Squid as your web proxy? It’s already written, does a great job caching, and as long as it’s local, you have access to its entire cache (and log files) to comb through.
-spc (I mean, why go through the trouble of writing a web proxy when there’s already one written … )
