Hi all,

I am trying to build an application that can filter URL's typed in any kind
of internet browser (i.e. IE, Netscape, Opera...etc.), well so far I reached
nothing although I tried the following

1- I've tried Remy Lebeau advice of using DDE, but it failed cause of many
reasons...Browser Reasons, rare information on DDE usage...etc.
2- I've tried to Grab the url from the Class Name of the combo where the URL
is typed, although I faced a lot of problems with browsers other than IE.

now I've only two ways left that I will need an expert advice on which is
the best with my task, and where I can FIND a documentation on how to use
either ways.
A. Building proxy server
B. Working with sockets and read all sent information from the user machine
so I can block undesired URLS, and unblock verified url's...

I will appreciate if anyone can help me with which way is the best and more
practical, and will not take me 100 years to develop....

thanks all for your help and support...

Regards
