This can be done with the WebProxy class, assuming you are using a HttpWebRequest. The code is written in C#, but I'm sure you can port it over to VB easily. Yes the code could probably be better and different in many ways, but this is a basic way to do it, and it should work for what you're trying to accomplish.



With Proxy: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Without: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

If you have a server to test it on, here is the PHP script as well

The code did work but i'm not quite sure on what you're trying to show me with the pictures is that a proxy tester you built to test if the webbrowser is actually using the proxy?

Precisely. Just showing you that the code works.

so this code changes proxy per refresh in list? I have used the script you provided and gained 67 views on a youtube video so I assume it works.

With some variations, yes. You can store your proxies in a list and have it pull a random one out of the list and make the request.

Ex: Let's say you want 120 views. You can make a loop for the 120 requests and every time the proxy is called to be set, have the proxy address/port be randomly selected out of the list with Random.

So the request code could be like so:


There are some changes to the code that could be made to make it cleaner, but that is a basic way of doing it.

       int index = new Random().Next(0, proxies.Count());
       string[] selProxy = proxies[index].Split(':');
       request.Proxy = new WebProxy(selProxy[0]/*ip*/, int.Parse(selProxy[1])/*port*/);

Sorry for all the noobie questions but it says proxies doesn't exist in current content would i make a new void for proxies?

We all start somewhere! But you would make a new string array:


And then populate it from the file when loading them with OpenFileDialog:

this.proxies = File.ReadAllLines(openFileDialog1.FileName);


Thank you so much +repp for the help code is fully working

No problem. Feel free to PM me with any problems/questions you have or if you need help with anything on the program.
