I have a question about the InternetOpenUrl function at wininet.dll. What does the INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG_WITH_NO_AUTOPROXY flag do, exactly? I have read the MSDN docs but couldn't make much sense from it... :red

In a simple explanation, it retrieves the proxy information from the registry (this proxy information is actually administered by IE), and uses that information regardless of any other auto proxy discovery scripts that your machine may be configured to use. Personally, for the most trouble free performance, i would just use INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG.

Ok, I'll use INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG then. Thanks! :U
