I use following python script to send http request to http://www.python.com/index.html, but I didn't see anything captured in fiddle2, what should I do?
>>> import httplib
>>> conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("www.python.org")
>>> conn.request("GET", "/index.html")
>>> r1 = conn.getresponse()

btw, I have change the Process Filter to be "All processes", but the http from python is still missed.

It sounds like your Python install isn't configured to pick up the
system proxy automatically.

It looks like you can configure it to send traffic to Fiddler
("127.0.0.1" on port "8888" by default)

If that doesn't help, you should ask how to configure Python to use a
proxy in a forum with Python experts. Thx!
