Auto-detecting proxy settings in a standalone Java app

*way* more support costs at present than anything else in the project. It's annoying to be disadvantaged in this way, when most native Windows applications just work... Thanks in advance, Chris Brown _ Bloquez les fenêtres pop-up

Re: Auto-detecting proxy settings in a standalone Java app

Hi, Thanks for all the rapid feedback so far. I don't have VB or the VB runtime, although perhaps I could use the JNIWrapper software to access this information (if I knew where it was...!). Pity the Webstart proxy detection stuff isn't available for all to see, as it returns (I think)

Using httpclient on the server to intercept and modify HTTP response

Hello, I've created an application that performs term highlighting as a service for search engines, but I need to add support for retrieving documents from NTLM-protected servers (as well as BASIC-auth-protected servers, and servers with no protection whatsoever). Currently, it works with the
