Is there a standard Windows dialog for obtaining the proxy username and password?

Question

Hi,

I'm using WinHTTP to write an an app that needs access to the internet, and is potentially behind a proxy. Everything works (almost) out of the box is the user is on a domain, but if he or she isn't then I need a way to ask for credentials. Is there a standard way of doing that, or should I write my own dialog?

Ideally I'd like something that mimics IE's username/password dialog.

Thanks.

CredUIPromptForCredentials() (or one of it's variants) is probably what you're looking for. This provides consistent look and feel with the version of Windows your software is running on.
