What Protocol Does Microsoft Easy Assist Use?

I realize this doesn't directly seem like a programming-related question... but I would like to understand on a TCP/IP level how this might work. I'd like to understand this so that I can better remotely help my own clients (sidework). I worked with a Microsoft engineer the other day, and I was really surprised that Easy Assist worked t...

How to add SoapExtension attribute to generated web service client proxy without modifying the generated class?

I have created a SoapExtension class to capture the soap request and response from specific web service calls.

How often is authenticated SOCKS5 used as an HTTP proxy in organizations?

I'm wondering how frequently organisations use SOCKS5 as their web proxy protocol over, say, HTTP or authenticated HTTP proxies. Should an application even bother supporting SOCKS5 as an HTTP proxy?

WCF Proxy Generation

I use svcutil to generate my wcf proxy that is calling a WSE2 web service. The problem comes when the web service author changes the order of fields in the proxy.

List of open proxies

We are looking to fetch a list of open proxies with the intention of disallowing messages originating from those IPs to go through our system. There doesn't seem to be anything even resembling an authoritative list on the net, let alone being in a simple format that doesn't require parsing. Has anybody done anything like this before and...

How do HTTP proxy caches decide between serving identity- vs. gzip-encoded resources?

An HTTP server uses content-negotiation to serve a single URL identity- or gzip-encoded based on the client's Accept-Encoding header. Now say we have a proxy cache like squid between clients and the httpd. If the proxy has cached both encodings of a URL, how does it determine which to serve? The non-gzip instance (not originally serve...

HTTP Proxy server in C#

My company is experimenting with writing a proxy server using the .NET Fx 3.5 and C#. From our research I have read that HttpListener is not a good candidate for a proxy server though I am unsure as to why.
