Browser: Internet Explorer 5.5 - SP2
O/S: Windows 2000 SP3

Hello, I'm having an issue with Internet Explorer's proxy excetpions list.

According to Microsoft KB article 209252, the character limit for the proxy exceptions list is 985 characters. I have multiple computers that require their proxy exceptions list to be updated with additional info.

With the additions made, the characters are not exceeding 900. However, the machines will hang and indicate that a memory location could not be written to. If I remove the additions to the proxy exceptions list, the machines work without issue.

I've searched through Microsoft's knowledgebase and various other places but I am unable to find any more info other than that I am within the pre-defined threshold. The KB document by Microsoft also indicates that the exceeding the 985 character limit should only result in the browser clearing all the addresses listed in the proxy exceptions list.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
