title: How do I read RSS feed through a proxy using RSS.NET?
body: <p>Trying to use <a href="http://rss-net.sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">RSS.NET</a>. <a href="http://rss-net.sourceforge.net/documents/code_examples.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Example</a> on the site is: (C#)</p>
  
  <pre><code>string url = "http://sourceforge.net/export/rss2_sfnews.php?feed";
  RssFeed feed = RssFeed.Read(url);
  RssChannel channel = (RssChannel)feed.Channels[0];
  listBox.DataSource = channel.Items;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, this fails because I need to access the feed through a proxy. How do I do this?</p>
  
  <p>An overload for RssFeed.Read() takes HttpWebRequest. I think this may be the way of setting this up, but I haven't used this before. Help! :)</p>
