AO3 Proxy

There are several options for its use: bypassing the blocking of websites, shopping in foreign online stores at regional (local) prices, access to a full library of media content, hiding your real IP-address.

Selenium WebDriver does not directly create an Internet Explorer (IE) session but instead launches the IE browser. This is because WebDriver is designed to interact with the browser through its WebDriver API, which is different from the native browser session.

When you use Selenium WebDriver with Internet Explorer, it starts the IE browser in a new window, and then you can interact with the browser using the WebDriver API. This allows you to perform actions like navigating to a web page, finding elements, and interacting with them.

It's important to note that Internet Explorer is no longer recommended for use in production environments, and Microsoft has discontinued its development. Microsoft recommends using Microsoft Edge as a more modern and secure alternative. If you need to use Edge with Selenium, you can follow the same approach as with Internet Explorer, using the ChromeDriverService and ChromeOptions classes.

To work with browser extensions in Selenium, you can follow these steps:

from selenium import webdriver

# Set the path to the ChromeDriver executable
chrome_driver_path = "path/to/chromedriver"

# Set the extension ID
extension_id = "your-extension-id"

# Create a ChromeOptions object
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()

# Add the extension ID to the ChromeOptions
chrome_options.add_extension(f"path/to/your-extension-folder/{extension_id}")

# Launch the browser with the extension
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=chrome_driver_path, options=chrome_options)

# Your Selenium code goes here

# Close the browser
driver.quit()

Replace path/to/chromedriver, your-extension-id, and path/to/your-extension-folder with the appropriate values for your setup.

By following these steps, you can work with browser extensions in Selenium and automate interactions with the extensions in your test scripts.

Go to "Control Panel" and in "Small icons" mode, find the item "Browser properties", aka "Internet Options". In the "Connection" tab, click on "Network Settings", and then leave the item "Automatic detection of parameters" enabled in the window that opens, and disable everything else.

The term "public" should be understood to mean open proxy servers. That is, they can be used by all users without exception. They can be insecure and are often quite overloaded, so the connection speed or response time when using public proxies can be very slow.
