However, what gets me is all these transparent web-caches that due to their nature fail to proxy web-requests to alternative TLD sites.
At the risk of getting even more off-topic... I was under the impression that transparent in-line caches don't have to do DNS lookups at all as the web browser has already done that and tried to connect to the IP of the web site before the traffic is intercepted by the cache.
