//  Using a SOCKS5 proxy is just a matter of setting a few properties.
//  Once these properties are set, all other coding is the same as when
//  the connection is direct to the HTTP server.

//  Set the SocksVersion property = 5 for SOCKS5
oHttp:SocksVersion := 5

//  Set the SocksHostname to the SOCKS proxy domain name or IP address, 
//  which may be IPv4 (dotted notation) or IPv6.
oHttp:SocksHostname := "192.168.1.100"

//  The port where the SOCKS5 proxy is listening.
oHttp:SocksPort := 1080

//  If the SOCKS5 proxy itself requires authentication, set the username/password 
//  like this.  (otherwise leave the username/password empty)
oHttp:SocksUsername := "myUsername"
oHttp:SocksPassword := "myPassword"

//  Now do whatever it is you need to do.  All communications will go through the proxy.
