How to set up WebMask with your browser

Internet Explorer 3


Note for Explorer 3.02 users

Internet Explorer 3.02 has a bug, such that secure connections will use the HTTP proxy instead of the Secure one. As a partial workaround for this, WebMask is able to forward (or tunnel) any such requests that Explorer wrongly sends it to another proxy.

If you have such a proxy available (e.g. SafePassage), then you will need to tell WebMask about this. Use the Tunnel "https://" requests to option on WebMask's General property page.

If you haven't got such a proxy, and you need to connect to a https:// URL, then you will need to temporarily disable the browser's use of a proxy.
