to use a webbrowser control in VB, but it should not pick the internet explorer's proxy settings.I want to build a browser in VB with webbrowser control to run a local intranet application, but this application should not use the internet explorer's proxy settings, but on the other hand, if I run explorer, it should run as it is with its settings.
Is it possible to set a WebBrowser control to use a proxy connection without changing all the other browsers also changing to that proxy?To clarify, I have an application that is monitoring a website but refreshing often enough during the day that I'm getting "you've made too many requests, please try again later". I'd like to get around that by using a proxy. Unfortunately not all anonymous proxies can be trusted for secure information like credit card information, so I only want to proxy the webbrowser control and not proxy any other non-application browsers.There is a site that explains quite well how to change the proxy (link not included, not certain on whether link posting allowed) but it changes the global settings on all browsers.I've tried to use 3rd party components (ex IPWorks HTTP control) however that doesn't work well with script-heavy sites that load and update dynamically - it only gets the empty skeleton of the page before being populated from the server DB.
#Region "Using Proxy" <Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("wininet.dll", SetLastError:=True)> _ Private Shared Function InternetSetOption(ByVal hInternet As IntPtr, ByVal dwOption As Integer, ByVal lpBuffer As IntPtr, ByVal lpdwBufferLength As Integer) As Boolean

I have a code that will change the proxy IP settings in the Registry. This works perfectly, however the second time I try to change it, the web browser does not use it - it uses the first one I changed to. For example..I start up the program. I enter 0.0.0.0 as the IP, and it changes to 0.0.0.0, which has been confirmed. A few minutes later, I enter 1.1.1.1 as the IP, but it still uses 0.0.0.0.

I am writing a few web based apps which will require a webbrowser extension. I have already used the IE webbrowser control that uses the trident web rendering engine. I believe this is MSHTML.DLL? Anyway, some of the users of my programs have complained of a few things. Particularily,
1. It seems to be a slow browser, at least compared to other rendering engines out there (webkit and gecko are 2 known ones).
2. On the developer side, it seems to be low in features. The features are sufficient in most cases, but there are some "special" things that I need.
3. It has VERY low HTML (and especially HTML5) compliance.
My question is, how much work would it take to use a different engine (such as webkit .net, which I HAVE heard of) and be able to distribute it easily. Or, if you guys feel ambitious, we could try writing a brand new engine ourselves. I know how big of a job it is, and frankly, I have no clue where to begin. I would just like your thoughts and opinions on the matter.

But my college uses a proxy so when I connect my laptop I need to change the internet settings in my web browser to view web pages. how I would send requests via a proxy server in VB.NET? Or is there a piece of software that I can download which tunnels all connections or is there a setting in win7 does this?
I'd like to set the proxy for a web request. However, when I say, for example, request.proxy = "x.x.x.x:xxxxx", it gives me the error "String cannot be converted to webproxy". How can I get around this and actually set the proxy?
Ive tried to edit option on the webbrowser control, example javascript enable/disable. but found out that it uses IE's option and cannot be changed.So my question is: Is there a way to do a "webbrowser" without using the WEbbrowser control that is based on internetexplorer?
