    I mad that tutorial for IE5 a long time ago, I assume it won't be very different for IE6

    If your proxy is port 80, 8080 or 3128 it's probably an http proxy so u can put the settings in the http spot

    From experience, I have to say yes.

    Usually, unless you're on a 56k it can sometimes speed it up. But if you're on broadband its prolly just gonna slow u down.

    The original creation of proxies were to speed up your connection!

    so im going to have to say yes to that, thou i usually cant be bothered to use them unless i want to annonymise my self while surfing around.
