When i try to access the webpage i get the error as "The remote server
returned an error : (407) Proxy Authentication required."

I am on a network using OS as winnt 4.0 and i do have rights to access
the internet (although i have to enter details in 'Tools->Internet
options->Connection->Lan Setting->proxy server'

CODE
=====
try
{
......
WebRequest WReq=WebRequest.Create(" http://www.*-*-*.com/ ");
WebResponse WResp = WReq.GetResponse();
      // get the stream of data
StreamReader sr = new

StreamReader(WResp.GetResponseStream(),Encoding.ASCII);
       string strTemp = "";
        while ((strTemp = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
        {
              System.Console.WriteLine(strTemp + "\r\n");
System.Console.WriteLine("Code written");
        }
.....
====

    If you need to enter information in IE to access the internet, then you
need to duplicate the information on the WebRequest (through the
WebRequest.Proxy property).  The WebRequest class does not take the
information from IE's settings to set the proxy.

    Hope this helps.
