If you are responsible for developing or maintaining a website and haven't checked out Ratproxy yet, you're missing out. Before I start spouting off about just how cool and useful this tool is, I suppose I should first tell you what a proxy is. In a nutshell, a proxy is an application that runs local on your computer and intercepts requests and responses between your web browser and the web server. In almost all cases, the proxy has the ability to manipulate the conversation going on between the two. Things like modifying your cookies, changing POST and GET parameters, and finding hidden fields are made uber-easy with the assistance of a proxy.
