You can set proxy for the whole application, that is every request made by app will go through proxy. Use this in constructor.

@QNetworkProxy proxy;
proxy.setType(QNetworkProxy::Socks5Proxy);
proxy.setHostName("proxy.example.com");
proxy.setPort(1080);
proxy.setUser("username");
proxy.setPassword("password");
QNetworkProxy::setApplicationProxy(proxy);@

For system proxy you can use this static function
@QList<QNetworkProxy> QNetworkProxyFactory::systemProxyForQuery ( const QNetworkProxyQuery & query = QNetworkProxyQuery() ) [static]@

I think what he's saying is that he wants his Qt app to "borrow" whatever settings Internet Explorer has configured for its proxy, rather than making the user reconfigure his app separately.

I don't know of an easy way to do that, but there may be some sort of native code you could use to either query those settings, or read them from the registry directly. That's just a guess though. It's not something that Qt does natively, AFAIK.
