Setup a proxy.

[JoeB]

Hi,,


How do i setup a global proxy setting that can be used within internet
explorer.

For example, i setup proxy, username and password etc. Then open IE and it
will connect OK.

I cannot do this - Currenly this is what i do :

WebProxy objProxy = new WebProxy( sProxy, iPort );
objProxy.BypassProxyOnLocal = true;
objProxy.Credentials = new NetworkCredential( sProxy_username,
sProxy_password, sProxy_domain );
objProxy.BypassProxyOnLocal = true;
GlobalProxySelection.Select = objProxy;


Please help

JoeB,

If you want to set the proxy parameters for the system, you do not use
the WebProxy class. Rather, you have to make a call to the InternetSetProxy
function in the wininet library through the P/Invoke layer. Specifically,
you want to use the INTERNET_OPTION_PROXY option.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for that. Does anyone have an example of this that works?
