What are you trying to do? I can't think how they could interact with each other.

Yes it could be made, since the HMA has option for sending "-changeip" through command prompt, it can be done. Then a piece of code is needed [inside the imacro] to check whether is the old ip, original pc ip or the new ip obtained , if all that pass then go back to work. That's the pretty basic logic.

Edit: I may be able to help you.

a lot of HMA's IP addresses and blacklisted. You may want to take that into consideration.

Wow this is great info, but if you can explain better that will be double great. Why because when ever I install HMA I can see something happening in command prompt but not sure how we manually change ip using CMD prompt

Q. Is HMA even an option anymore? I stopped using them a year ago because they were slow slow slow.

Now using various proxy providers with way better performance.

Well you should try entering the location of the hma, something like "Location of hma bin folder ->c:\prog\HMA\bin -changeip
Well nothing should happen to the command prompt, you can m "saying changing ip address" by sending the above command in cmd [command prompt]
I am sure there is some examples on the hma webpage/forums in case that doesn't help.

What I'm trying to do is auto change ip on each macro loop. Since imacros support vbscript I don't know how I would call HMA in vbscript to auto change ip

Ok, try something like this

Code:

'This is vb.net but I am assuming it's nearly the same, function for sending change ip command
  Public Sub sendIpChangingCommand()
        Dim CMD As New Process
        Dim SW As System.IO.StreamWriter
        Dim SR As System.IO.StreamReader
        CMD.StartInfo.FileName = "cmd"
        CMD.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False
        CMD.StartInfo.RedirectStandardInput = True
        CMD.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = True
        CMD.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True
        CMD.Start()
        SW = CMD.StandardInput
        SR = CMD.StandardOutput


        SW.WriteLine("""" + "C:\Program Files (x86)\HMA! Pro VPN\bin" + """" + " -changeip")
        CMD.Dispose()
        SW.Dispose()
        Do Until SR.EndOfStream = True
            Application.DoEvents()
            Dim pom As String = SR.ReadLine
        Loop
        SR.Dispose()
    End Sub

the problem is you wont get a callback when hma has changed the ip. you can only sleep for a period and hope that itmconnects in that period.

Yeah that's why he has to check his original ip, current ip and keep them in memory. Then sleep for few seconds, and check if the ip match the original, match the old hma ip, or it's new hma ip. Depending what's the ip, do something, either wait more or continue the tasks or trigger new ip changing [if the waiting for change is too long]
