*  To use a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy, simply set the following
*  properties prior to communicating with the HTTP server:
*  The SOCKS hostname may be a domain name or
*  IP address:
loHttp.SocksHostname = "www.mysocksproxyserver.com"
loHttp.SocksPort = 1080
loHttp.SocksUsername = "myProxyLogin"
loHttp.SocksPassword = "myProxyPassword"
*  Set the SOCKS version to 4 or 5 based on the version
*  of the SOCKS proxy server:
loHttp.SocksVersion = 5
*  Note: SOCKS4 servers only support usernames without passwords.
*  SOCKS5 servers support full login/password authentication.
