Hi all, A while back a user noticed that OpenVPN still uses old IE4 API to detect proxy settings (e.g. in proxy.c and ieproxy.c). This apparently causes problems with IE's proxy detection on some Windows installations. A "new" InternetQueryOption API was introduced in IE5, so this part of OpenVPN would benefit from an upgrade anyways. Would somebody be interested in taking up this task? We seem to have a shortage of Windows devs, so any help would be most welcome!
