You could use the HTTP Component that comes with either the Indy
(http://www.nevrona.com/indy/) or ICS (http://overbyte.alexid.fr/)
libraries. Both provide properties or events that handle proxy (as well as
www) authentication. Simply set up the required properties (such as proxy
info), request the url using a synchronous call, then check the HTTP
response code.
The MS XML Parser contains two HTTP COM components as well which are very
easy to use from Delphi i.e.
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q299/5/66.asp?SD=MSDN&FR=0.
The basic IXMLHTTPRequest object will auto-detect the proxy settings from IE
(but doesnt always seem to work), while the ServerXMLHTTP object will need
to manually configured with he proxy settings but is a lot more stable.

Subject: [DUG]: URL Link Checker
Hi all,
I am trying to create a basic URL link checker... I have had some
limited success...
I can test the links on files in house and I would assume it would work
if I was connected via dialup. But we use a proxy server to access the
internet in the outside world. The proxy server requires me to logon.
In FrontPage when I check the links (if I haven't logged onto the proxy
yet) it pops up an error and then a logon dialog box.
I can't find out how to do this in Delphi... I have tried a few of the
internet API functions and done a scan on MSDN but haven't come up with
anything...
Just wondering if anyone has done this before or knows where I should
head.
Regards
Colin
