In the case of ICQ/AIM, luckily their server supports all variety of ports. If you need to use a proxy to connect to ICQ/AIM, be sure to use port 443. That's frequently the only port that proxies accept when a proxy CONNECT request is issued. In the case of MSN, should you need HTTP protocol AND proxy, I was not able to make it work without installing a local Squid proxy pointing to the real proxy and then using my Squid to connect. I've read somewhere that it's an SSL problem and it's not clear to me why a local Squid solves the problem, but it worked. Btw, that was on Windoze and the proxy's M$. When I looked at the log, it would seemly connect, download the user list but would not put me on "online" status nor would notify me of anyone's "online" status. Good luck, hri ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
