Google's help docs show how to do this:

  1. Click the wrench menu tools menu.

    wrench icon

  2. Select Options.
  3. Click the Under the Hood tab.
  4. In the 'Network' section, click the Change proxy settings button. This will open the 'Internet Properties' dialog box in Windows where you can adjust your network settings. See here for more details.

These are Internet Explorer settings, which means Google chrome does not use its own proxy settings, right? – awaisj Aug 31 '09 at 6:13
Yep. Changing these settings affects Google Chrome as well as Internet Explorer. – jweede Aug 31 '09 at 11:19

Use Proxy Switchy!

It lets you store profiles for different proxy settings and switching is done really easy.

Click the wrench at the top, select options.

On the Under the Hood tab, scroll down to 'Change Proxy Settings'

When running Google Chrome under a supported desktop environment, the system proxy settings will be used. However, either your system is not supported or there was a problem launching your system configuration.

But you can still configure via the command line. Please see man google-chrome for more information on flags and environment variables.

Running the latest Chrome on Xubuntu & it's possible to start it with Terminal, so that it will use a localhost proxy called Privoxy:

google-chrome --proxy-server="https=127.0.0.1:8118;http=127.0.01:8118"

However, this doesn't stick and it isn't simple to edit the menus to use it. I'm looking for a way to insert the proxy information in .config/google-chrome but so far it's just wishful thinking.
