How to change proxy settings automatically using script?
I have a small script for changing the proxy settings of any browser, it's quite simple and self explanatory.
It does the following: List all the default proxy settings which the browser may have used. If found, delete all the proxy information saved and ask the user to set up a new proxy. If found again, change the proxy information. The problem is that the Internet Explorer automatically reconnects when the script changes the proxy settings, I have tried using some solutions found on stackoverflow, but nothing works. What I have tried is: I tried using InternetExplorer.Application.Object.GetProperty("proxies") but this only returns null, while InternetExplorer.GetProperty("proxySettings").
I tried using Application.Quit() but it does not change the proxies.
Some code: Option Explicit. Public Sub main(). Dim IE As Object. Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") With IE. .Navigate2 "" While .Busy Or .ReadyState <> 4
DoEvents. Wend. 'DoWhile IE.Document.All ElementsByClassName("title")
'DoWhile IE.All ElementsByTagName("title") 'Do While IE.GetElementsByTagName("title") For Each elem In IE.GetElementsByClassName("title") elem.Click IE.SetProperty "proxySettings", "proxy" & WorksheetFunction.RandBetween(1, 10000) & ";" & WorksheetFunction.RandBetween(1, 10000) &
WorksheetFunction.RandBetween(1, 10000) & WorksheetFunction.
How do I find my proxy script address?
The script is the address you go to for the script that loads the page.
The script is a URL and it takes you to your proxy script's web page address. The Proxy Server Address is the address the script on your own domain uses to make requests on your behalf, like when it's used to load the page at mysite.com. You can learn how this is calculated in the section below.
The last item of information you need to know about is that the browser uses three main parts to resolve a URL, starting with what it gets from DNS. The first is that the DNS lookup tells your computer where to find the website mysite.com to two addresses. You might see one of those addresses be www.com or mysite.
The second step that happens is the HTTP protocol request, if there is a site named mysite.com, it might take you to its web page. Let's say there was another page, www.com, and it also exists and the browser goes to www. Then, the browser now has to go back through its HTTP requests.
To find the proxy script that goes to mysite.
