Webbrowser每个控件的不同代理

Question

I wanted to know whether it is possible to set proxy for each different webbrowser in an application (same process).

I have searched a lot to find codes to change proxy system wide by modifying registry and another process specific proxy. But i want each webbrowser inside same process to have different proxy

Eg: WebBrowser1 Proxy --> 95.188.106.78:3128

WebBrowser 2 Proxy --> 89.218.160.162:9090

WebBrowser 3 Proxy --> 78.39.68.145:3128 and so on

Or if it is not possible by using WebBrowser directly, then can anyone else suggest what can i use to achieve this (not webrequests, i want browser only through which i can load all data and user can interact with it but with different proxies) like using geckofx or webkit? But i don't know if its possible in them or not

Answer 1

Take a look at this - sorry its VB.NET

Its basically saying you can configure it through editing one of the IE DLL's by changing the InernetSetOption. Hope this helps.

Here is another link that may help

Answer 2

Unfortunately, you cannnot set the proxy per insnance. Not even per application - it is global. If you chnage it for a .net app, it will impact IE as well.

Here is complete code to change the proxy.

Create a "Form1" with buttons "B_Get" "B_Set" and "B_Disable" and then paste this code.

It should work for you. I used this app as proof of concept for an automatic proxy cycler i built.

Depending on your applications needs, you may be able to switch it, and then switch it back. Note that it WILL impact internet explorer.

To verify that this is working, check internet explorer. You will probably have to open/close the options dialog for IE, but you shouldnt need to restart the browser.

This will also impact .NET apps on the fly - if you run my program while yours is running, you will be able to change the proxy that your program is using.
