#16393 — IllegalArgumentException with Socket API and Proxy with Proxy.Type.HTTP

I am trying to create a socket with the proxy type of HTTP.  Every time the socket is created an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.  I have learned from googling that the HTTP proxy is unsupported in sockets.  What is the work around?  Does anyone know?  Any help would be much appreciated as there doesn't seem to be an answer readily available that I can find.

You can set up proxies in the Java Control Panel.

How much does the code using the Socket depend on its 'interface'? 
Perhaps it would be happy with (say) just getInputStream() and 
getOutputStream() on an already connected Socket.  If so, then perhaps 
you can connect to the proxy explicitly, send "CONNECT" yourself, and 
parse the response header.  If all goes okay, hand the socket as is over 
to the 'using' code, and it won't know the difference.

The code pretty extensively relies on the sockets interface.

Can you define 'pretty extensively', i.e. enumerate the methods which 
are used, and in what sequences?  If this is sufficiently simple, and 
you can modify the code, some refactoring to use your own abstraction of 
the socket ought to be possible.
