Hello,

I've written an application which may help, it allows you to use the
browser from behind a proxy server on a WIFI network. Search for the
"ProxySetting" application on the market (its free).

At the moment Android only allows proxy information to be used when
you are connected to a GPRS/3G network, there's a bug raised about it
here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1273. The
ProxySetting application works around the problem, but unfortunately
it's still a bit limited (by Android): It does allow for using the web
browser behind a non-authenticated proxy, but apps such as Maps and
Youtube don't currently work and there's no way to add a username/
password for the proxy.

I'm sure this will be sorted out properly by the Android team, but
until then hopefully the ProxySetting app will help.

Please let me know if it works or if you have any problems (I've only
just posted it on the Market so haven't had any feedback yet).

Thanks!
