$success = $http->UnlockComponent('Anything for 30-day trial');
if ($success != true) {
    print $http->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;
}

//  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->SocksHostname = 'www.mysocksproxyserver.com';
$http->SocksPort = 1080;
$http->SocksUsername = 'myProxyLogin';
$http->SocksPassword = 'myProxyPassword';
//  Set the SOCKS version to 4 or 5 based on the version
//  of the SOCKS proxy server:
$http->SocksVersion = 5;
//  Note: SOCKS4 servers only support usernames without passwords.
//  SOCKS5 servers support full login/password authentication.
