 The page at https://crypto.stanford.edu/flashproxy/options.html is not
 very helpful towards new flashproxy operators.

 There are at least two modifications that we can do to make it more
 friendly to humans:
 a) Add a visual indicator that flashproxy is proxying connections when
 users have opted in. For example, add a big "Flashproxy active" or
 "Flashproxy inactive" text underneath the "Yes"/"No" buttons.

 b) People who don't know computers probably also don't know how flashproxy
 works or what a proxy is. Maybe the "''Do you want your browser to act as
 a proxy?''" text can be changed to something else.
