I was very happy to see that proxy authentication has finally been rolled into Winamp. However, I am unable to find where I am able to enter my username and password for my company's firewall. I tried something along the lines of:

username http://forums.winamp.com/ubb/tongue.gifassword@proxy http://forums.winamp.com/ubb/tongue.gifort

but it didn't work. How do I enter my username and password? Thanks.

That message came out pretty poor, let me try again:

username colon password @ proxy colon port

Substitute "colon" with the real deal and trash the whitespace.

username:password@proxy:port

This worked for about a day.

Now back to "Error Resolving Proxy"

Don't know if problem with Winamp or Company Proxy

I'm with you - it still does not work. Some clear, concise instructions would be very useful for us thicko's. Does the password have to be encrypted?

I have enjoyed Winamp for quite awhile now, but not being able to connect through my proxy is getting annoying. Why hasn't Winamp put in a clear setting for username, password, and the proxy. RealJuke has a great place to manualy input the needed information for a proxy. Why doesn't Winamp have something simular? I would use those other media players, but I don't want to. Winamp is the one I enjoy using.
