Setting up CURL support on GoDaddy Hosting

MODERATOR NOTE: THIS INFORMATION IS NOW OBSOLETE!
GoDaddy has finally changed their systems to no longer require a proxy for CURL activity.
In fact, now if you have the CURL Proxy settings enabled, you will have difficulty connecting to PayPal and other services.

Setting up CURL on GoDaddy
(because PayPal and other modules require it)

Does your host require that you use a proxy for cURL communication?

- True
- False NOTE: GoDaddy needs this set to FALSE as of September 2008

2. Set the Proxy Address of the Proxy Server required by the host. In GoDaddy's case, their default is listed:

cURL Proxy Address
If you have a hosting service that requires use of a proxy to talk to external sites via cURL, enter their proxy address here.
format: address: port

NOTE: These settings were removed from Zen Cart v1.5.0 because they should never be enabled.
