improve download dll?
The downloading dll provided with NSIS is a really great contribution, I used it to create web-installer which automatically download the newest version of our software.

However it only works if no proxies are used. Could it somehow be improved to detect the Windows system settings (that would be the IE settings, I guess) for proxies and use these for downloading?

It autodetects http (but not SOCKS) proxies from windows.

Ahh, didn't know this. Sorry for the trouble.
I can't test it myself (direct connection), but I got user feedback to that effect. I'll ask them whether they use socks or a regular proxy.
