如何使用python通过（tor）socks代理发出HTTP请求？

Question

我正在尝试使用python进行HTTP请求。我试图改变我的Windows系统代理（使用inetcpl.cpl）

url = 'http://www.whatismyip.com' 
request = urllib2.Request(url) 
request.add_header('Cache-Control','max-age=0') 
request.set_proxy('127.0.0.1:9050', 'socks') 
response = urllib2.urlopen(request) 
response.read() 

是给我的错误

Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in response = urllib2.urlopen(request) File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 126, in urlopen return _opener.open(url, data, timeout) File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 400, in open response = self._open(req, data) File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 423, in _open 'unknown_open', req) File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 378, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 1240, in unknown_open raise URLError('unknown url type: %s' % type) URLError:

看来的urllib2不支持SOCKS作为代理类型（如下解释：How can I use a SOCKS 4/5 proxy with urllib2?）。查看http://code.google.com/p/socksipy-branch/，查看urllib +袜子的示例。
