Cool , i didnt know you can use any proxy in gtalk just like in browsers
But wats the use of it really ? Because you cant surf any blocked sitesin gtalk , and how can its be possible for anyone to track your IP via gtalk ?
hay ~! that’s not work~! help me i want to ask u
the user name and password need to add our gmail password and username??
i really understand it >.<
The username and password there is that of the proxy server, not your gmail id.
Incase if your proxy has no authentication , kindly disable the check box, before the username. (Proxy requires Authentication)
