In my web service application, I need to detect what proxy server IE is using to reach the internet. Does IE store its proxy address in the registry. If so, where is it stored in the registry and can I read the value using the registry class of vb.net 2003
Thanks,
Fred
Reading ProxyServer Address Used by IE

Hi Fred,
Take a look at this article on automatic proxy detection support in .NET Framework 2.0:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/05/08/AutomaticProxyDetection/default.aspx#edupdate
The article gives some details on which registry keys are used to determine the network settings used by IE.
