I know what proxies are, but I've never used one. Please explain to me how what happens with the other programs. Do they have settings for the proxy name, and port, and password? or do they work without doing anything? Is Coollector the only program that you have problems with, or is it a common issue? |

A long time ago, I've had a user who had problems because he was using a proxy, and I've modified Coollector to make it work. I've just had a look at my code, and the program indeed looks at the Windows registry key "Computer\HK_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" If the value "ProxyEnable" is TRUE, then Coollector will use the value of "ProxyServer" for the name of the proxy. Until, now, no other user has ever complained. But now, I'm confused by those port and password settings you mention...

for example: to access internet, my company use a proxy that allows every user, connect to internet using a user and pass. I use to download Internet Download Manager (IDM) and i need to set the proxy address and port that my company uses and also put my username and password. In most programs you can choose this connexion settings eg mozilla, ie, kaspersky, and so. In Coollector i cant set this. Here I'll show you an example of what I'm talking A picture says a thousand words  Sorry if I confused you. ps: i check the registry key that you mention and its ok.

I've made some research, and here are a couple of ideas... 1) Coollector reads the Windows registry, and from what I've read, the proxy settings in the registry are in fact the settings of Internet Explorer. Could you please configure Internet Explorer for your proxy, and see if that helps with Coollector. 2) there's a free program called widecap, which can force individual applications to use proxies, even if the applications themselves don't support proxies. Could you please have a look at it: http://widecap.com/ |

when a programs reads the Windows registry and the proxy settings of internet explorer is configured, automatically a window appears asking user and password, such as KMPlayer. That's what should happen with Coollector and does not. The widicap you say does not work for me. I´m using win8 x64 and i cant add programs to proxify through widecap. I realy check that 2 options and did not work for me. I think that my problems its bigger!! lol You think that we could set up a proxy server from Coollector it self in the near future? I like Coollector and want to help to. sorry to be a problem...

Please download this special version: http://www.coollector.com/Coollector_Proxy.exe At startup, it'll ask you the proxy username and password. Please tell me if it works. If everything's fine, then I'll make the other refinements (storing the settings in an encrypted form, etc...). |

It really ask me for user and pass but this solution did not work for me.  The images still loading and nothings else happens. Maybe if I could config the proxy server and port in Coollector itself it will work.

I've made some research, and I think I've understood what went wrong. Apparently, the registry contains values in this form: "ProxyServer"="http://ProxyServername:80" I didn't know that the port number was appended to the server name, and therefore my code was completely messed. I've made a new version, please tell me if it works: http://www.coollector.com/Coollector_Proxy2.exe |
