[Http-recorder] setting up the proxy....

[George Gallen]

Well, it was the proxy module that was limiting it to the localhost access only.
 
If I added in  $proxy->host(""); after the line in the proxy sample program, it will
allow any host to proxy (NOT A GOOD SECURITY OPTION), but it is ok for testing :)
 
 my $proxy = HTTP::Proxy->new();
 $proxy->host("");
