Hydra (http-get-form) + Burp = Missing GET parameters
## Issue
* When using `http-get-form` with `HYDRA_PROXY_HTTP` set and using Burp as the proxy, the GET parameters are not being passed on.
* Using other proxies (such as ZAP), or not using a proxy at all, the GET requests are correct. The issue only happens when you use burp.

## Setup
* OS: `Kali 2.0 x64`
* Proxy: Burp Suite Proxy (Free) - Kali package: `1.6.01-0kali0` & Latest at the time of writing - `burpsuite_free_v1.6.25.jar`
* Hydra: v8.1 (Kali package: `8.1-1~kali1`)
* Target: DVWA v1.8 [6040830] ~ https://github.com/RandomStorm/DVWA
## Test 1 (Without proxy)
**This will be 'sucessful' with it making a request.**

## Test 2 (With Burp)
## Test 3 (With ZAP)
From a quick look at your logs, it seems that the URL parameters are not being stripped when passing through Burp. Rather, the requests containing the query string are not even being issued at all.
Do you see any error messages in the Burp alerts tab, on the command line from where you launch Burp, or anywhere else, when you run the traffic through Burp?
Enabling ‘invisible proxy support’ fixes the issue =).
Thanks for the assist!
Thanks for the update. It sounds like Hydra isn’t sending standards-compliant HTTP requests in proxy-style format in some situations. Glad you got things workng.
