The following list shows the WinInet migration considerations:

  • Auto Proxy Configuration is supported in Windows Mobile.
  • The InternetSetCookie function does not check security zone settings. To determine the zone settings, use the InternetSetCookieEx function.
  • Username and password in the URL string are disabled by default. To enable this functionality, set the DisableUserPswdForHTTP value to 0. This value is located under the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings registry key. For more information about the registry settings, see WinInet Registry Settings.
  • Security Note   Setting this value to 0 is not recommended because it enables username and password in the URL. This may expose the device to potential security threats.
