    Need an idea for a programming project to get me back in the swing of things

    I havn't programmed for over a month because I was busy with school. I am entering a competition in February and I need to start brushing up on VB so I have a chance at winning. Anyone know of any good challenges out there that could keep me busy?

    How about a fully functional web proxy that handles both HTTP & HTTPS connections.
