With this option, CuteFTP attempts to detect Internet Explorer's proxy settings, including proxy.pac proxy script files. This is only available for Windows XP SP1, W2K Pro SP3, W2K Server SP3, and W2K Server 2003 using WinHTTP dll. If that fails, WinInet dll, which is supported by XP, 2K PRO, NT4, ME, 98, and 95 is queried. |
