I hope someone can help. I have a user whose http: proxy setting changes every morning. She takes her computer home everyday, but does not use broadband or DSL for internet access at home... just dial-up. When she boots up in the morning at work the http: setting has changed to "localhost" from "proxy", but the settings by secure:, FTP:, and gopher: are still all set at "proxy". The "Use the same proxy server for all protocols" box is now unchecked as well, even though I check it every time I change everything back to what it should be.

Anyone have any ideas? "Bypass proxy server for local addresses" is also check as well. It doesn't seem like she is doing anything that would make changes to these settings.
