Hello Mindtraveller (a nice name, by the way)!

I don't know about proxies with respect to the core TCP/IP protocol. I've only encountered proxy support with respect to the HTTP protocol. There is a slight variation of the request syntax when sending a HTTP client request through a proxy; the request is then sent to the IP address and port of the proxy and the original server address is contained on the first GET line of the request. The HttpClient class supports this mechanism.

Regards

Tomas
