That is definitely not possible with standard Java Http, because the proxy is defined using system properties - and that cannot be done independently per thread. It would be possible with the HttpClient implementation, but has not been implemented. As far as I know, this is the first time that this scenario has arisen. We are considering implementing Proxy setup via a GUI item. This would probably solve your problem. But at present it's not possible. ____________________________________________________________________________________ > Be a better Globetrotter.
