I (hold your flame) wrote a WWW proxy in MOO-code.  It works 
beautifully.  However, only small images manage to come through the 
proxy well.  Large images get cut off part way through the image, 
and the full image never is sent along the connection.  Here's the 
appropriate code:

set_connection_option(connection, "binary", 1);
set_connection_option(player, "binary", 1);
while (typeof(line = read(connection)) != ERR)
  notify(player, line);
endwhile
boot_player(player);

PS:  I may gripe about using hex instead of octal, but, Pavel, we 
all still love you for making binary IO an option :-)
