Mock proxy server on local (With fiddler and windows firewall)

My clients are using a proxy server on their corporation,and I want to set up dev environment for testing development related to proxy issues. So, I want to set up a proxy server which blocks all port 80 requests, unless the request is requested by the proxy server. This is what I tried:

  1. Installing fiddler2 on port 8888.
  2. Setting up two rules on windows firewall:
    • Block all port 80 requests.
    • Allow all requests from fiddler exe.

Then, I opened FF and changed the proxy server to be 127.0.0.1:8888. Unfortunately, the requests from the fiddler are still blocked. What am I doing wrong? Is there other program which do that easier? (Tried also with CCProxy without success).
