Dream Proxy

Both on a PC and on modern cell phones, a built-in utility that is responsible for working with network connections, provides the ability to set up a connection through a proxy server. You just need to enter the IP-address for connection and the port number. In the future all traffic will be redirected through this proxy. Accordingly, the provider will not block it.

In Windows, proxy settings for local connections are made through the "Network and Sharing Center" (from the "Control Panel"). You need to select "Browser Properties", then go to "Connections" and click on "Network Setting". And there you can set either the script or the parameters for the proxy.

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.

It depends on which browser you are using. In Opera, Chrome, Edge a proxy is configured at the level of the operating system itself. In Firefox in the settings there is a special item (in the "Privacy" section).

To disable a proxy-server in Yandex browser, you need to do the following steps:

Open the browser. Click on the icon "?" in the upper right corner. Go to "Settings". Type "proxy" in the search box. Click on "Proxy settings". In the tab that opens, select "Network settings". Disable the "Use proxy server" option.
