And if you are running a console application that need to connect to the web and you are after a proxy, then you have a problem.

The solutions are:

  • run windows utility proxycfg.exe like this:
    C:>proxycfg -p proxy_name:proxy_port
  • move to a network where you don’t need a proxy ;)

Enjoy
