I'm not sure izzit i post it to wrong spot but I'm really a newbie to deal with a proxy...
hello guys, here is a problem coming to me and I can't figure it out... please to lent me a hand
my OS: windows vista home basic
problem:
When I try to play around with all the services (such as msn, updates and BT, etc.) it work well without a proxy. For now, cause of some reason I must stay the connection under a proxy and everything need to configure again,
Now what I done are only the IE and firefox connections, but some other services (such as msn, updates and BT, etc.) are not working... because some of them never provide any proxy configuration (I think those may expect user direct connect to Internet), and also some of it do not work after configuration. How can i configure and use them? Can anybody give me a solution?
Thanks,
P/S: I'm sure all the key ports are available

MSN uses the proxy settings of IE.
Updates may use the proxy settings of IE.
BT software may not support HTTP proxies.

First to thanks for your kindly reply. I did it in IE but it still not working, am I taken the wrong way? or something I miss to touch?
my way to do it:
Tools >> connections >> LAN setting >> checked "use a proxy server for your LAN (These...)" >>> key in my proxy address and port: 80 >> checked "Bypass proxy server for local address"

under the Advanced setting in LAN,
HTTP, secure, FTP are taking the same address and they are also port 80, blank setting for SOCKS
checked "Use the same proxy server for all protocols"
I'm not sure is this helpful or not, but i try to post it for any reference

Questions:
1). How are you determining that the proxy you are attempting to use is operational?
2). Have you taken into consideration that not all ISPs, especially cable connections, allow you to use port 80 or any common port proxy?
|
I tell it like it is and that's offensive to those professing knowledge they don't have.

my roommate, access to the same proxy but his computer is working... when i tried the same way, mine is not working. This problem occur to many of others (who using the same proxy) as well, not only me facing that.
2). Have you taken into consideration that not all ISPs, especially cable connections, allow you to use port 80 or any common port proxy?
Because of many of the people tried to access through the same proxy, some of them can but not for all. So that I guess everything should be fine, but the computer setting...
I'm not sure is it the windows problem, most of the people who success to gain full access are Windows XP (there are still somebody with XP but not working). About Vista, since now I haven't seen anybody gain full access from the proxy...

First of all, you can try to use the "Quote" button.
Secondly, you haven't a clue on how to test a proxy to see if it is actually working and anonymous ... and therein is your biggest problem! You cannot use a non-working, non-anonymous proxy to gain access to any site.
How do you know that other people are using a particular proxy to gain access to any site? On whose authority do you make this statement? And, how do you know what system these people are using? Are you drunk? Your statements appear to make you seem drunk, because very little of what you say here makes any sense at all. For example:
<-- I done these ways, my browsers are working
my proxy testing result:
5 ports ready, other all "good". No 1 blocked
But it still the same, all other programs related to Internet (not include browsers) are not working... can please to give me some suggestion or solution?
For pete sake, any of your above comments actually make any sense to you?
Entering a proxy into your browser (even if it is correctly configured, working, and anonymous) would have absolutely nothing to do with "all other programs related to Internet" (whatever that means). In nearly all cases, you must configure each different program that connects directly to the internet to use a proxy. |

Your latest comment is a continuing example demonstrating your complete lack of knowledge and intelligence. It makes no sense whatsoever!

Not blind and not a dude! However, if you can't express yourself in a manner that makes any sense to those of us who could most likely assist you, what do you expect to gain my posting your ignorant ramblings?
