Unable to properly view the forums via proxy

I always browse the internet with a software proxy for security reasons, but as of a couple days ago it seems I can no longer view the forums properly while behind a proxy.

The problem is that all pages load extremely slowly, no images successfully load period, and fonts display incorrectly. I've tried a number of different configurations but my connection attempts to img.tranceaddict.com are always forcefully rejected (socket error 10061.) TA's main page works perfectly fine, but the forums do not.

I hope this problem can be fixed soon, because I'd like to be able to participate in the TA forums, but I'm not willing to risk my system's security in order to do so.

are these random anon proxies or do you know the source? I browse behind proxies a lot and have no problem.

It's not an physical proxy, it's a program called Proxomitron on my system that acts as a proxy and filters incoming/outgoing headers and all html web pages before they are loaded into my browser by whatever parameters I configure it to.

Edit: Well I guess it doesn't matter anymore, I found a way to filter my outgoing headers that convinces the server to send me the images properly.
