Idea:

Have the project respond to an RPC with a message that indicates the project is permanently shutdown, and have the status of the project change in the UI to be something like "terminated" so that the user would know to disconnect from the project.

If we just have the project automatically disconnected, the users would be very puzzled as to why. I can see the complaints about the "bug" that disconnected my computers from project X.

This is going to affect the manager, the daemon, and the server. However I believe that most of the work will be in the daemon so I am putting it there.

Should we have this in place before Pirates shuts down? If they are planning on shutting down soon, this could be one last test that they do.

It could work exactly like the automatic proxy configuration of web browsers like e.g. Firefox.

Of course two different scripts for both HTTP- and SOCKS-Proxy should be possible.

Posted by: Date: 3:50 PM 01-03-2006 "For Windows systems, this can be lifted directly from the registry." This is valid only for IE and should therefore not be used! It would be a bad solution, anyway, to use other programs settings without asking the user.
