    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    // 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:
    http.put_SocksHostname("www.mysocksproxyserver.com");
    http.put_SocksPort(1080);
    http.put_SocksUsername("myProxyLogin");
    http.put_SocksPassword("myProxyPassword");
    // Set the SOCKS version to 4 or 5 based on the version
    // of the SOCKS proxy server:
    http.put_SocksVersion(5);
    // Note: SOCKS4 servers only support usernames without passwords.
    // SOCKS5 servers support full login/password authentication.
