Hi,
I would like to update my pc LAN connections in IE Internet Options, with one click of the mouse.
We already have a .exe which automatically updates the "address" in the "Use Automatic Configuration Script" in the LAN settings...I assume it is written in VBscript.
I also need to update the address in the "Use a proxy server for your LAN" with a new value and leave the option "Bypass Proxy server for local addresses" unticked.
I know where the registry settings are.
This is the ini file for the exe we already have and which updates the "address" in the "Use Automatic Configuration Script"

RG|HKU|Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings|AutoConfigURL|S|
I have tried to add this to the ini file but it did not like it:

settings|proxyURL|s|test1-rth.test.bbc.co.uk

As I have never written in Vbscript and I do not have a clue how to do it, can someone please explain how it can be done and recommend any sites which could help me to understand?
Thanks
 
I highly doubt a .exe is written in VBScript ...
 
Thanks for your reply.
As I mentioned I am not quite sure what I am doing in order to make those changes...can anyone suggest what I can do?
Thanks
