Why does this code for checking proxy validity crash?

I have the following code in my program. When I try to check if the proxy is a valid proxy or not it crashes my program. Any ideas how to fix this? I'm using indy 10.

if checkproxy('http://www.google.com') label1.text:='Good' else label1.text:='bad';

If I try to call another idHTTP connect after requesting checkproxy it crashes the program.

This is the actual code.... That returns the error...

In your code above, if the "SettingsForm.edtProxyServer.text" is less than 7 chars, you will have a situation where you use AntiFreeze and HttpCon without creating them first.

I experimented a little with your code, and tested this on my WinXP SP3 (D2010, Indy v10.5.5). This should be working code...

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
Var
   Resp : String;
begin
     Resp := webSession('http://www.celarius.com');
     if Length(Resp)>0 then
        MessageDlg('Got the body ok',mtInformation,[mbOk],0);
end;

function TForm1.webSession(sURL : ansistring) : ansistring;
var
   SStream    : Tstringstream;
   HTTPCon    : TIdHTTP;
   AntiFreeze : TIdAntiFreeze;
begin
     Result := '';
     if Length(SettingsForm.edtProxyServer.text) >= 7 then  // 0.0.0.0
     Try
        SStream := NIL;
        AntiFreeze := NIL;
        HTTPCon := NIL;
        Try
           SStream := tstringstream.Create('');
           { Create & Set IdHTTP properties }
           HTTPCon := TIdHTTP.create;
           HTTPCon.HandleRedirects := true;
           { Check Proxy }
           if checkproxy('http://www.google.com') then
           Begin
                HTTPCon.ProxyParams.ProxyServer := SettingsForm.edtProxyServer.text;
                HTTPCon.ProxyParams.ProxyPort := StrToInt(SettingsForm.edtProxyPort.Text);
                HTTPCon.ProxyParams.BasicAuthentication := True;
                HTTPCon.ProxyParams.ProxyUsername := SettingsForm.edtProxyServer.Text;
                HTTPCon.ProxyParams.ProxyPassword := SettingsForm.edtProxyUserName.Text;
           End;
           { Create another AntiFreeze - only 1/app }
           AntiFreeze := TIdAntiFreeze.Create(nil);
           AntiFreeze.Active := true;
           HTTPCon.Get(sURL,SStream);

        End;
