I think the popular method of doing this around here is to use a USB thumb
drive and a VM. I'd suggest making a duplicate of this. I'm sure you'll
have a spare PC to plug it into already, but I wanted to point it out.
Having two of everything on cold swap will definitely help you keep things
running.

Yes, but a proxy doesn't have to be as complicated as a whole Hobbit
server. It wouldn't even necessarily have to have disks drives - in a
crunch you could probably run a Linux distro off a LiveCD or USB
stick, with Squid or Tinyproxy builtin.
