Anyway to get Lynx to use a proxy without changing "http_proxy environmental
variable"? Its just that one perl script I need to access 10.0.0.0/16 with
a proxy since its not local and another perl script needs to access a
different 10.0.0.0/16 without the proxy since it is local. Basically to
access gear that is on private pools.

The script is already wrote and uses lynx. I am just modifying it to do
this with a proxy. Will look into LWP. Never heard of it before.

Thanks.

Then it sounds like this is a lynx question, not a perl question.
Several solutions to your problem are available in the lynx man page.
