You sure it is not being set via Local Policy?

Not that I have found so far. The only scripts that they had when I got
here were for login for mapped drives. Nothing in there for IE settings.
I did find a different place (acutally a few) where they were/are
setting the detect settings but still haven't found where proxy is being
set at.

        Do you maybe have a script or something that is setting it?

        I have a random issue that I can't seem to get to the bottom of,
I am still cleaning up all the GPs that I inherited with my job....

         

        The problem is randomly I will get a call from a user that they
can not surf the internet. When either I VNC or actually stop at their
desk and look around there is 99% of the time proxy information inside
of IE. It is also usually set to Detect settings. 

         

        I started toying with Group Policy Results for a couple of the
users. I found the following. That supposedly the GP for setting a
domain wide screensaver (yeah I know its spelled wrong, just haven't
taken the time to fix the previous mistake). But in looking at that GP
there is no IE settings that show up at all. 

         

        I also can't seem to find where the lower part of that window
would be set. I have printed out all our GPs and none of them list proxy
information, but somehow they are getting it. I can remove it and the
user works fine, but then they will call again later (can be days or
weeks) and the same thing is back. 

         

        Any thoughts? 

         

        TIA.
