Thank you for the kind words and feedback!

You’re absolutely right—ProxiFyre connects directly to the IP address instead of the hostname. This behavior occurs because the connection is intercepted and redirected after the hostname has already been resolved—specifically, once the TCP SYN packet has been sent. At that stage, only the destination IP address is available to ProxiFyre, and the original hostname is no longer accessible.
