    A previous developer here MS Internet Transfer Control 6.0 (msinet.ocx) connecting via a proxy before by setting the proxy at runtime. Looking at the code I don't see much that should cause you a problem. He was replacing any equal signs in the submission string with "%3D". At runtime he was setting the protocol to icDefault and the port, username and password all according to form inputs.

    If needed I'll throw together some functional code and try it..might help if you know an open proxy I can use
