Overview

ComSocks property tabs are easy to be understood. You can make changes in all tabs, then click APPLY or OK to enable the settings at one time. In the Daemons Tab, HTTP, SOCKS, FTP, Telnet, and RealAudio all have the similar proxy settings. You select the daemon from the daemon list and then click Configuration button to inspect or verify the default settings. Please be aware that if the option <Use this proxy IP for all daemons and port mappings> is checked in the General Tab, all the proxy IPs in the Daemon and Port Mapping configuration dialog box will be overwritten by this default proxy IP. The default settings in ComSocks are preliminary. Modify them cautiously. The detailed setup steps will follow this section:
