Hi,

Use Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or above. It allows to have personal proxy settings for each DialUp connection. Yust select connection and set Settings button and it'll open proxy configuration window. I think it can be done in Netscape by using Configuration Java Script but I never tried to do it there.

Good luck,

Mike

Answer 1 is perfect for IE 5, but for Netscape I suggest that you set up 2 user profiles, one for each dialup account. Each profile can be set to different proxy settings. User profiles are setup in the utilites area from the netscape start buttonmenu. If the help system does not walk you through the process, feel free to email and I will send you a step by step sheet.
