Thanks for that Valentin, Duck, I actually stumbled across the proxyserver function after my post, But looks like a client requires user\pass authentication on the proxy server as well, so may need the xtra Duck suggested, although I also found "UntimateNetXtra" as well which seems to be a better deal for the price.
Shame that the proxyserver function only seems to be "half implemented" I can't think of any good reasons why they wouldn't build in a method for sending user pass parameters.
