What can I do to prevent this in the future?If you are on a personal connection, like at home, you can run an anti-virus scan on your device to make sure it is not infected with malware.If you are at an office or shared network, you can ask the network administrator to run a scan across the network looking for misconfigured or infected devices. There are cases when you need to use a proxy server in order to access various resources on the Internet.

For example, if you connect your Windows Phone device to your company's business network, you may need to set up a proxy, so that you get internet access.

In this quick guide, I'll show how to add a proxy server to the wireless connection on your Windows Phone 8. The procedure is both simple and fast.NOTE: Adding a proxy server for a Wi-Fi network will make your internet browser send all traffic through the proxy server.

Most built-in Windows Phone 8 apps should work with a proxy. For example, you should be able to access your email, calendar, etc. However, third-party apps and games are very likely not to work with a proxy. This is because most apps do not use proxy compatible protocols to communicate through the Internet. How to Add a Proxy Server to Your Wireless NetworkStart by opening your phone's Settings and tapping WiFi.Then, tap the wireless network you're connected to.A screen named Edit network is opened.

Here you will find a Proxy switch and all the details of the wireless connection (IP address, subnet mask, gateway, DNS and MAC address).To add a proxy server turn On the Proxy switch.Two new fields are displayed: Server/URL and Port.Write the IP address or the URL of your proxy, in the Server/URL field.Then, in the Port field, enter the port used by the proxy.

If you don't specify any port, then the default port 80 will be used.After you have entered the necessary details, tap done on the bottom menu to save your changes.How to Disable a Proxy Server in Windows Phone 8To disable the use of a proxy, go to Settings -> WiFi and then the wireless network you are connected to.Then, turn Off the Proxy switch.If you want to completely forget the details of the proxy you just used, then you'll have to delete the network so that all its configuration details are forgotten.

ConclusionAs you can see from this guide, configuring a proxy for your Wi-Fi network is very easy. In another tutorial, we will also show how to make your cellular data connection work through a proxy. Until then, if you have questions on this subject, don't hesitate to leave a comment.

There are times when your devices may be infected by malware that's very hard to remove with traditional antivirus software.

On other occasions, the malware blocks the installation of any antivirus software and you cannot remove it manually. In such delicate situations, you need to boot an antivirus in a safe recovery environment, so that it can.

In this post, you will see how to use proxy and change the ip address on Windows Phone device.In Windows Phone, you can connect to internet via two ways: by Wi-Fi network and by mobile internet. In both these cases, you have the freedom to change the ip address of your Windows Phone.

Let me show the procedure to change ip address on Windows Phone and use proxy to browse internet anonymously.For free internet proxy addresses, you can do a quick search on the internet using terms like � free internet proxy address� or � free us proxy address� etc. Using Proxy on Wi-Fi networkTo use proxy on a Wi Fi network, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and tap on the wireless network that you are connected to.

If you have the latest Windows Phone 8.1 update, simply swipe down from top for quick access to Wi-Fi settings. In the next window, you will see toggle button to enable Proxy.Enable the Proxy and on the server / url field enter the proxy web address and port number on the next field.Tap on the tick mark to save the settings and you are now ready to browse internet anonymously on Windows Phone! Using Proxy on Mobile InternetTo use proxy on mobile internet connection, go to Settings > Access Point and long press over the active mobile internet settings on you have.

A small popup will shows options to view, edit, activate or delete the settings. Select edit from the option and you see will the following window.Scroll down for the Proxy address and Proxy port fields. Enter the details there and save the settings by tapping on web proxy windows phone tick mark.

You are now ready to surf internet anonymously on Windows Phone !There are many advantages of using proxy on Windows Phone. For example, I have used this proxy technique to score bing rewards points outside US. To conclude, you don�t need to worry about country restriction on website, just go proxy! �TourStart here for a quick overview of the site�Help CenterDetailed answers to any questions you might have�MetaDiscuss the workings and policies of this site�About UsLearn more about Stack Overflow the company�BusinessLearn more about hiring developers or posting ads with us Exactly as on Windows, WP apps can open direct connections and therefore bypass proxies.

While most apps will only need to use HTTP traffic (for web browsing or web services) and can therefore use the built-in HTTP client functions (which will respect the phone's proxy setting), apps that open direct TCP or UDP sockets are not subject to the system proxy settings.Some such apps implement their own support for proxies.

For example, Cisco WebEx added proxy support at some point. However, it is not universal. Interestingly, Skype on the desktop does support proxies, either by getting the system proxy settings (which I don't think is possible for a WP app, though I may be mistaken) or by letting the user set them manually. You either need to bypass the proxy (get the college IT to allow this, or use another connection such as your cellular data), get the apps themselves to support it (some of them might - check their Settings pages - but in general if they don't then the developers will need to update them with proxy support as a new feature), or run your data through an invisible proxy that in turn runs it all through the "real" proxy, basically a gateway that funnels all its traffic to a proxy.

You could probably set up a PC as such a gateway, but it would only work near the PC then.� CBHacking Sep 2 '15 at 6:20 TechnologyLife / ArtsCulture / RecreationScienceOther� Stack Overflow� Server Fault� Super User� Web Applications� Ask Ubuntu� Webmasters� Game Development� TeX - LaTeX� Programmers� Unix & Linux� Ask Different (Apple)� WordPress Development� Geographic Information Systems� Electrical Engineering� Android Enthusiasts� Information Security� Database Administrators� Drupal Answers� SharePoint� User Experience� Mathematica� Salesforce� ExpressionEngine� Answers� Cryptography� Code Review� Magento� Signal Processing� Raspberry Pi� Programming Puzzles & Code Golf�more (7)� Photography� Science Fiction & Fantasy� Graphic Design� Movies & TV� Music: Practice & Theory� Seasoned Advice (cooking)� Home Improvement� Personal Finance & Money� Academia�more (8)� English Language & Usage� Skeptics� Mi Yodeya (Judaism)� Travel� Christianity� English Language Learners� Japanese Language� Arqade (gaming)� Bicycles� Role-playing Games� Anime & Manga�more (18)� Mathematics� Cross Validated (stats)� Theoretical Computer Science� Physics� MathOverflow� Chemistry� Biology� Computer Science� Philosophy�more (3)� Stack Apps� Meta Stack Exchange� Area 51� Stack Overflow Careers � FORUM� Tutoriel� Premiers pas� Debutant� Intermediaire� Developpeur� Expert� Windows� Windows 7� Windows 8� Windows 8.1� Windows 10� Windows Server 2012 / R2� Windows Server 2016� Windows Phone 8 et 8.1� Windows 10 Mobile� Logiciels� Internet� Reseau� Securite� VM� Developpement� Jeux video� Tests� Bons plans En depit des forfaits 3G/4G qui permettent a n�importe quel smartphone de se connecter a internet, une connexion wifi est parfois preferable (en terme de debit et pour eviter un depassement de quota) ou obligatoire pour acceder a des ressources reseau (intranet, messagerie, application metier).

My goal is to enable a Mobile Data Optimization proxy, which must work on 3G/LTE network. So is there a way to set proxy settings like on Wifi?

Is it possible to do it with a profile from an application or web? Or maybe even programatically from application?All I found was the Access Points menu, where you can set APN for your internet access and it also allows entering proxy server address and port. Is this working for manual configuration? Is it possible to do a separate profile or even automatic configuration of the proxy either programatically or from a website?Thank you for your help! There's no need to do this manually.

It's built into WP8. Go to settings > Swipe to applications > Internet Explorer > Advanced settings > tick "Reduce data use by sending URLS to the Data Sense Service".I wouldn't recommend messing around with proxies unless you know exactly what you are doing.

It seems you are wanting to use Google's service, which I definitely do not recommend. Use the data sense service instead. No, this is not what I am trying to do. I need custom proxy configuration, because the optimization is done on other servers, not Data Sense you mentioned or Google.

And the setting should be phone wide, not only Internet Explorer. So what exactly is it you are trying to do?You need to go into settings > access point. Then create a new access point and add in proxy details, then everything will run through that particular proxy. No, it wouldn't be allowed for security reasons. I for one wouldn't want an application or website to set a proxy on my phone for me programmatically.

This would mean all the information on my phone would be passed through this proxy and could be captured and used maliciously. Of course, that is an security issue. I've meant that it could be done, if user confirmed the profile addition and that the profile is signed by a trusted entity. It is working flawlessly like that on iOS devices. � Welcome� Installation� Getting Started� Configuration� Browser & System Configuration� Preferences� Recording Settings� Proxy Settings� Access Control� External Proxies� HTTP 1.1� Using Charles� Proxying� Tools� FAQs� Additional Information� Version History Browser & System ConfigurationIn order for any browser (or any application) to use Charles it must be configured to use Charles as its proxy server.

Most browsers will have a way to configure this manually, but configuring manually is annoying because you have to configure and reconfigure everytime you start and stop Charles.Fortunately Charles can autoconfigure the proxy settings in many cases including:� Windows / Internet Explorer proxy settings � used automatically by most Windows applications� Mac OS X proxy settings � used automatically by most Mac OS X applications� Mozilla Firefox proxy settings (all platforms)Windows Proxy SettingsCharles can automatically configure the Windows proxy settings so that Internet Explorer and other Windows applications automatically start using Charles.

By default Charles will configure and then reconfigure the Windows proxy settings whenever Charles is started or quit.Charles proxy configuration behaviour can be changed in Charles in the Proxy Menu, Proxy Settings dialog.The Windows proxy settings are configured in the Internet Options control panel on the Connections tab if you want to look at them yourself.

Mac OS X Proxy SettingsCharles can automatically configure the Mac OS X system proxy settings so that Safari and other Mac OS X applications automatically start using Charles.When you first install Charles you will be prompted to grant permissions to Charles to autoconfigure the proxy settings. After that, Charles will configure and then reconfigure the Mac OS X proxy settings whenever Charles is started or quit.Charles proxy configuration behaviour can be changed in Charles in the Proxy Menu, Proxy Settings dialog.The Mac OS X proxy settings are configured in the Network panel in the System Preferences if you want to look at them yourself.

iOS Device SettingsTo use Charles as your HTTP proxy on your iPhone you must manually configure the HTTP Proxy settings on your WiFi network in your iPhone's Settings.Go to the Settings app, tap Wi-Fi, find the network you are connected to and then tap it to configure the network. Scroll down to the HTTP Proxy setting, tap Manual. Enter the IP address of your computer running Charles in the Server field, and the port Charles is running on in the Port field (usually 8888).

Leave Authentication set to Off.All of your web traffic from your iPhone will now be sent via Charles. You should see a prompt in Charles when you first make a connection from the iPhone, asking you to allow the traffic. Allow this connection. The IP address of your iPhone will be added to the Access Control list in Charles, which you can view and change in the Proxy menu > Access Control Settings.Remember to disable the HTTP Proxy in your Settings when you stop using Charles, otherwise you'll get confusing network failures in your applications!

iOS SimulatorsThe iOS Simulator should use the system proxy settings. If it doesn't, please try quitting and restarting the iOS Simulator. As of Xcode 6 it appears to be important that Charles is running and set as the Mac OS X system proxy before you run the iOS Simulator.

Mozilla Firefox Proxy SettingsMozilla Firefox proxy settings are configured automatically using a Firefox Add-On. Download the add-on.The Charles Autoconfiguration Add-on adds a Charles option in the Tools menu in Firefox; you can view the current status in that web proxy windows phone. However you will not usually need to use that menu as the add-on will silently take care of configuring and unconfiguring Firefox.When you first install Charles, it will check for and prompt you to install the Firefox add-on.

If you don�t install the Firefox add-on immediately you will later need to enable Firefox configuration in the Proxy Settings in the Proxy menu. Manual Proxy ConfigurationIn Charles, go to the Proxy menu and choose Proxy Settings.

This will show you the currently configured HTTP Proxy Port and SOCKS Proxy Port. Note down which one you want to use (probably HTTP Proxy).The host name is 127.0.0.1 (your own computer) or the external address of your computer if you want to access Charles from another computer.You can then configure your browser or application�s proxy settings with that host name and port. Java Application Proxy ConfigurationYou can configure your Java application to use Charles in code or as command line arguments to the java executable.System.setProperty("http.proxyHost", "127.0.0.1");System.setProperty("http.proxyPort", "8888");And for HTTPS as well.

Note that you may also want to configure Java to trust Charles�s root certificate in this case (see SSL Proxying).System.setProperty("https.proxyHost", "127.0.0.1");System.setProperty("https.proxyPort", "8888");For the source of this information, We can't sign you inYour browser is currently set to block JavaScript.

If you�re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]This topic describes proxy support on Windows�Phone Emulator for connecting to intranets and to the Internet. Some proxy configuration options are not supported on Windows�Phone. The same limitations that apply to Windows�Phone also apply to Windows�Phone Emulator.The following proxy configuration options are supported:�Specifying whether to use a proxy server.�Specifying the proxy server address and the port.�Specifying whether to bypass the proxy server for local addresses.Other proxy configuration options are not supported.

For example, if you specify URLs or IP addresses in the proxy exception list, Windows�Phone Emulator ignores the exceptions.This topic contains the following sections.� Resolving proxy configuration issues� Configuring the proxy settings� Related Topics Windows�Phone Emulator supports automatic network configuration for most of the common scenarios, such as a direct connection to the Internet, a connection to the Internet by using a proxy server, and a connection to the network by using VPN.

The emulator automatically configures the proxy settings by querying the operating system for the proxy information. Developers can simply start Windows�Phone Emulator and begin using network-based apps without specifying the configuration or a running a tool.However, if your app is not able to access the network, try the following steps, or follow the steps in the section that describes the specific issue: Test network connectivity on the host computer Verify that the issue is specific to the emulator rather than the host computer.�Verify that you have network connectivity on the host computer.�Verify that the Internet is accessible by opening a non-cached Web page from the host computer, and then open the same page by using Internet Explorer on the emulator.Cannot connect to an intranet site by using a fully qualified domain name or IP address If you try to connect to an intranet site by using a fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) or IP address and are unable to connect, you might need to disable proxy settings to connect to intranet sites.If you specify a Web service by using the format https://localhost: port/ servicename.svc, the network connection will work.

However, if you specify a Web service by using the format https:// computername: port/ servicename.svc, the network connection fails because computername translates to an FQDN.

To avoid this issue, you can search for the FQDN and replace it with computername. Cannot connect to an intranet site over a virtual private network If you are using the emulator over a virtual private network (VPN) connection, you might need to disable proxy settings to connect to intranet sites.

Cannot connect to an intranet site by using manual proxy settings If the host computer uses manual proxy settings and you are trying to connect to intranet sites web proxy windows phone Windows�Phone Emulator, you might need to bypass the proxy server for local addresses.The emulator attempts to connect to intranet sites by using LAN settings in the same order as Internet Explorer.

The emulator first attempts to connect to intranet or Internet sites by using automatically detected settings. If that fails, it attempts web proxy windows phone connect by using other settings. The following list shows the order in which the emulator uses LAN settings:�Automatically detected settingsDuring automatic detection, Windows�Phone Emulator detects proxy settings and the Bypass Proxy Server option is enabled by default.�Automatic configuration script�Manual LAN settings (proxy server settings)If proxy serv
