Is it possible to change/set my Internet Explorer proxy setting in VB.NET application? For example, change the proxy server IP.
If so, do I call and add the MS Web Browser into my toolbox, and add the object on my form to do it, or I'm totally wrong, there are something else I should take care of.
I've been trying to search a way to set IE's proxy in code and ran across the WinINet API.I then found some code that someone made to set the proxy:
VB.NET
' The Windows API function that allows us to manipulate
' IE settings programmatically.
Private Declare Auto Function InternetSetOption Lib "wininet.dll" _
[code]....
how to modify it correctly.
I'm using the following code to set the proxy on an HTTPWebRequest:
Dim proxy As New WebProxy("HOST:PORT")
...Then...
' Goto the final URL
request = CType(WebRequest.Create("[URL]"), HttpWebRequest)
request.Proxy = curProxy
[Code] .....
Now I put in a valid Proxy, don't run into any problems applying it, but IPChicken will always return my IP address, not that of the proxy.
Alright I know that this question is asked all too often on vbForums but I am running into this problem and none of the posts have been clearly answered, a majority of them just redirect to some deprecated VB6 code that cannot be transferred easily to VB.Net. I was wondering if anyone would be able code to refresh my Local Area Network settings on a windows seven computer.I have code that will set all of the registry values that I need. (I have read on other posts that this is not the best way but then they just link to old non-.Net code that will not fit into my project.) I was wondering what exactly the 'Ok' button when you exit the LAN Settings window does, because this part is what actually refreshes the Ip of the computer to use proxy settings set by the registry values, I was hoping to have my program only be one button, that would do all of this without it opening the LAN Dialogue (requiring further human interaction.)
View 10 RepliesI am using Watin mostly to automate thing I do by hand. Sometimes, I need to change proxy. To do this, I have to set up IE to use a local proxy all the time (listens locally and forwards to a remote porxy), and then by hand change the settings of that program each time I need to use another proxy.
This is not an elegant solution! It may work, but it is not nice.
So, my question is, how do I change programmatically IE settings while using Watin? I code in VB.NET.
I am working on an application where User enter the IP address and Port of HTTP Proxy Server to use it. figured out a way to change Proxy settings using registry, however that is not system wide, that only works for IE and chrome.I have been searching internet for about a week and could not find a way to set a system wide proxy to be used by all application. Is there any way to do so.

The solution can be either P/Invoke registry editing. I just need something that works.

View 9 RepliesI am working on an application using vb 2008 express. I have built test programs over the past few weeks and shared them for feed back. Today when I finished some work, I built another test application, but when I install it the start-up screen maximizes but is set between one and two desktop icons from the top of the screen.
In debug mode it looks fine. In the past it looks fine. Each time I start the program the screen is in a slightly different location. It is set to start maximized and to the best of my knowledge, I did not change any settings in the property area. I have tried loading on three computers and the results are the same. Any ideas on what I could have done to produce this strange result?
