Do not mix up the proxies (sharing your Internet Conection) we’re talking about in most of this file, with a (caching) web proxy as lots of companies use to speed up your surfing over the web with your web browser. Only recently mIRC 5.81 introduced an option you can use to connect to IRC through a HTTP Proxy. In this case mIRC uses a smart method to open a persistent connection to such a HTTP Proxy and from there to the IRC server.
