You can use the following script to tunnel through a Netscape proxy or the
TIS http-gw.  Thanks to Urban Kaveus <urbanat_private>.

#!/usr/local/bin/perl5 -w
#
# ssh-tunnel.pl 
#
# Usage: ssh-tunnel.pl ssl-proxy port destination_host port
#
# This script can be used by ssh as a "ProxyCommand" to
# traverse a www-proxy/firewall that supports the http CONNECT
# command described in
# http://home.netscape.com/newsref/std/tunneling_ssl.html
#
# Example, connect to host named "remote" outside of your firewall:
#
# $ ssh remote -o'ProxyCommand ssh-tunnel.pl www-proxy 80 remote 22'
#
# Better yet, insert the ProxyCommand definition for host "remote" in
# your $HOME/.ssh/config file:
#
#      .
#      .
#    Host remote
#      ProxyCommand /usr/local/bin/ssh-tunnel.pl www-proxy 80 %h %p
#      .
#      .
