[Webtest] Browser Recording Tool - Proxy settings

[Dierk Koenig]

You really need to fill in "localhost".

The Click-O-Mat, that runs on your local machine,
i.e. "localhost", acts as the proxy.

This is not the Address bar in your browser, but
the textfield named "Address" in your LAN Settings dialog.

hope that helps
