I can  understand running a proxy, especially  if your trying to get a 
reputation for being able to surf websites fast, why waste bandwidth 
downloading a page like google.com when you could have  it cached, 
however theres a very big difference between using a proxy by  default 
or using a transparent proxy, and completely blocking all connections 
that dont go through the proxy.  Thats not providing a service thats 
screwing people.

Did you get a refund?
