Here is the URL for a Microsoft KnowledgeBase article on using the
Inet control with a proxy.
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q171/3/79.asp
As an alternative to the Inet control, we offer a pair of controls --
HTTP and FTP -- which support the use of proxies. Each control has
the following properties: ProxyHost, ProxyPassword, ProxyPort,
ProxyType and ProxyUser which make connecting to a proxy server a
matter of adding a few lines of code.
