  Features:
   1. General
+	+ IPv6 support for incoming and outgoing connection,
+	  can be used as a proxy between IPv4 and IPv6 networks
+	  in either direction.

-	  Windows.
-	+ IPv6 support
   2. Proxy chaining and network connections
+	+ Can be used as a bridge between client and different proxy type
+	  (e.g. convert incoming HTTP proxy request from client to SOCKSv5
+	  request to parent server).
 	+ Connect back proxy support to bypass firewalls
 	+ Parent proxy support for any type of incoming connection
 	+ Username/password authentication for parent proxy(s).
