Hi
I was testing out the MSDN example and I noted that
any proxy settings I choose for web request has no effect.

Is this a known problem? I tried this
on the Ipaq 6500 phone series.

Sub Main()

Dim myWebRequest As HttpWebRequest =
CType(WebRequest.Create("http://www.microsoft.com"), HttpWebRequest)

Dim myProxy As New WebProxy

' Obtain the 'Proxy' of the Default browser.

myProxy = CType(myWebRequest.Proxy, WebProxy)

dim proxyAddress As String

proxyAddress = ""

proxyAddress = "http://no.such.proxy:9090"



If proxyAddress.Length = 0 Then

myWebRequest.Proxy = myProxy

Else


Dim username As String = "Rubbish"

Dim password As String = "Rubbish"

' Create a new Uri object.

Dim newUri As New Uri(proxyAddress)

' Associate the newUri object to 'myProxy' object so that new myProxy
settings can be set.

myProxy.Address = newUri

' Create a NetworkCredential object and associate it with the Proxy property
of request object.

myProxy.Credentials = New NetworkCredential(username, password)

myProxy.BypassProxyOnLocal = False



myWebRequest.Proxy = myProxy

End If



Dim myWebResponse As HttpWebResponse = CType(myWebRequest.GetResponse(),
HttpWebResponse)

End Sub
