What's the easiest way to change the Windows proxy address using .NET code?

Question

I found a code samples here:

But it's very complex and involves manipulating the Windows registry.

Is there an easier and less error-prone way of changing the proxy server address?

Answer 1

Code to do this can be found here, using the proper APIs rather than direct registry hacking
