My small application can't connect to a website.

I believe it to be a security/configuration issue as our internet connection goes through one of our companies proxy servers and prompts for a username as password. I have to enter this every time I open a browser and attempt to connect to the internet.

Does someone know how i could use the IE Proxy settings?!

Thanks for your support!

I'm not sure exactly how your proxy has been configured, but if you're not able to change the proxy settings, could you try and connect to the internet from a browser. When you're on the page that asks for a username and password, select "View Source".

If this submits the username and password to a form, add a web control to your application that connects to a page that immediately submits the username and password in the same way. This might authenticate you with the proxy server and allow you to access the Internet without having to type these details in.
