Remarks

If the user needs to connect to a remote server through a proxy, this property should be set to a value other than ProxyNone (ProxyWindows is default value). Depending on the type of remote proxy, the user should specify the correct protocol with this property.

The most common proxy type is ProxyWEBStandard. ProxySocks is general proxy protocol, universal to any type of protocol running on top of it. On most Windows only Socks4 is supported when ProxySocks is selected. ProxyWindows type uses same values as specified in Internet Explorer, under Tools->Internet Options->Connections->LAN Settings.

If your proxy server needs you to authenticate, you should setup ProxyLogin and ProxyPassword properties. Only ProxyWEBStandard supports login/password authorization.
