So I change proxy setting of browser (I'm using IE6) as setting SOCKS4 as localhost / 8000 and other entries as ALL EMPTY. Then I succeeded. Is this help you?

Dynamic forwarding support only SOCKS protocol version 4 (not 4a). --- Regards, Shun-ichi Goto R&D Group, TAIYO Corp., Tokyo, JAPAN -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
