    The web link below is for VB6 (if God forbid you are using it).


    The web link below is for VB.Net: The following article is directly
    from that page.


    Internet Explorer lets you specify proxy settings. In the Tools menu,
    select Internet Options. Select the Connections tab and click the LAN
    Settings button. The goal is to figure out if the box indicated by the arrow
    in the picture is checked.
    Function InternetProxyEn abled looks at the Registry key
    HKEY_CURRENT_US ER\Software\Mic rosoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\ Internet
    Settings. If the value of ProxyEnable is not 0, then the box is checked.



    ' Return True if the internet settings has ProxyEnable =
    ' True.
    Private Function InternetProxyEn abled() As Boolean
    ' See if Internet Explorer uses a proxy.
    Dim key As RegistryKey = _
    Registry.Curren tUser.OpenSubKe y( _
    "Software\\Micr osoft\\Windows\ \CurrentVersion \\Internet " & _
    "Settings")
    Dim keys() As String = key.GetValueNam es()
    Dim result As Boolean = _
    (CInt(key.GetVa lue("ProxyEnabl e", 0)) <0)
    key.Close()

    Return result
    End Function

      While you can probably read the setting this way, I doubt it will take
      immediate affect.
      The proper way is via the Inet API but I don't know the exact calls.

        You're probably right. The two namespaces that come to mind are System.Net
        and System.Web. System.Net.WebP roxy looks promising.
