How to Make a Proxy Bot in Visual Basic

A proxy bot lets you bypass your Internet service provider and browse the Web using a proxy website. This allows you to browse the Internet anonymously. Also, you can use a proxy bot to browse the Web in an environment where several websites are blocked intentionally by the administrator. You will need Visual Studio developed by Microsoft to create a proxy bot web browser.

Instructions

1. Open the Start menu and select "All Programs." Click to launch "Microsoft Visual Studio."

2. Click the "File" tab and choose the option "New Visual Basic Windows Forms Application."

3. Locate the object titled "WebBrowser" at the top-left corner of the program window. Drag it and drop it on the project window.

4. Right-click the "WebBrowser" object. Choose "Properties."

5. Type the URL of the website that you wish to access through the proxy bot under "URL." Click "OK."

6. Click the "File" tab and select "Save." Type a file name for the project and choose a destination on the hard drive to save the file.
