InternetSetOption on Vista IE7

Posted: 07-07-2007, 08:16 AM
Hi,

I have to create a plugin for IE7 on Windows Vista. This plugin will change
the proxy settings of IE7. Now I have found that the problem
with this plugin is that proxy cannot be set by registry or
InternetSetOption while in protected mode. Is there any way around this.

Thanks in anticipation.

Regards,

Ahmad Jalil Qarshi

No, not really. That's the whole point of Protected Mode - to prevent
plug-ins from making system-wide changes.

You may want to read this to get more info on what Protected Mode does to
plug-ins:
