Recently I wrote a program using sockets in C, to connect to an HTTP server running locally and thereby to do requests to that.
That worked fine for me. After that I tried the same code to connect to another server on the web (e.g. www.google.com), but I was not able to connect and was getting another html response from the proxy server in my network.
- My local IP is: 10.0.2.58
- The proxy IP is: 10.0.0.1
This is the response I got :

How can I bypass this proxy to connect to external servers?
Response got when tried with CONNECT
