Dear Juraj Sakala, Thanks for your reply. Would you please elaborate more on your reply, I do not really understand your context :-) If based on my understanding, I already have configured my firefox with the local proxy's IP address (Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Network Tab -> Setting -> Manual Proxy configuration -> Http proxy : LocalProxy's IP port 3128 and also have checked on the Use this proxy for all protocols) Or is there any extra proxy configuration in firefox that I should check? Thanks for your reply and hope to hear from you soon. Thanks again.
