};

[DllImport("wininet.dll", SetLastError = true)]

private static extern bool InternetSetOption(IntPtr hInternet,

IntPtr lpBuffer,

int lpdwBufferLength);

private void RefreshIESettings(string strProxy)

{

const int INTERNET_OPTION_PROXY = 38;

const int INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PROXY = 3;

Struct_INTERNET_PROXY_INFO struct_IPI;

// Filling in structure

struct_IPI.dwAccessType = INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PROXY;

struct_IPI.proxy = Marshal.StringToHGlobalAnsi(strProxy);

struct_IPI.proxyBypass = Marshal.StringToHGlobalAnsi("local");

// Allocating memory

IntPtr intptrStruct = Marshal.AllocCoTaskMem(Marshal.SizeOf(struct_IPI));

// Converting structure to IntPtr

Marshal.StructureToPtr(struct_IPI, intptrStruct, true);

bool iReturn = InternetSetOption(IntPtr.Zero, INTERNET_OPTION_PROXY, intptrStruct, Marshal.SizeOf(struct_IPI));

}

private void SomeFunc()

RefreshIESettings("1.2.3.4:8080");

//or RefreshIESettings("http://1.2.3.4:8080"); //both worked
