Connecting to IRC trough proxy

[Sn0opy]

Hey there,

it was easy for me, to connect to IRC with Autoit. But that's not my problem. Is it possible to connect to IRC through a proxy? I tried to use the HTTPSetProxy() function, but failed. It's still connecting with my normal IP. Any ideas?

When a client uses a proxy, it typically sends all requests to that proxy, instead of to the servers in the URLs. Requests to a proxy differ from normal requests in one way: in the first line, they use the complete URL of the resource being requested, instead of just the path. For example,

GET http://www.somehost.com/path/file.html HTTP/1.0

That way, the proxy knows which server to forward the request to (though the proxy itself may use another proxy).

This is how you would connect to a webpage over a proxy client.

TCPStartup()
$start = 1
$socket = TCPConnect('81.x.x.x', 5728) ; 81.x.x.x = your sock5 ip Proxy
$cmd  = 'CMD CONNECT 64.111.104.70:80 GET / HTTP/1.1' & @CRLF ; 64.111.104.70 = autoitscript.com
TCPSend($socket, $cmd)

While (1)
    If ($start = 1) Then
        $srcv = TCPRecv($socket, 512)
        If ($srcv <> "") Then
            MsgBox(0, "", $srcv)
        EndIf
    EndIf
WEnd

Most likely the procedure for IRC or any other service would be the same.
