Transparent and non-transparent proxy server:
The term "transparent proxy" is most often used incorrectly to mean "intercepting proxy" (because the client does not need to configure a proxy and cannot directly detect that its requests are being proxied)
A 'transparent proxy' is a proxy that does not modify the request or response beyond what is required for proxy authentication and identification.
A 'non-transparent proxy' is a proxy that modifies the request or response in order to provide some added service to the user agent, such as group annotation services, media type transformation, protocol reduction, or anonymity filtering
