title: Change browser proxy settings from Python?
body: <p>I have written a program that relies on a proxy to function. I now need a script that will check to see if the browser is set to use the right proxy, and if not, change it to use it. I need this implemented for as many browsers as possible, but is only required for <i><b>Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari and Opera</i></b>. I am not even sure how to go about this, but it is for a project for work that will be due in a few days. If anyone can help or lend advice, I would greatly appreciate it!</p>
  
  <p>I am programming on:<br> 
  MS Windows XP<br>
  Python 2.6</p>
