There are changes to the wpad script that help reduce this name lookup hell.
Best behavior for web proxy clients is seen when either:
- the local domains list has *no* IPs listed
- the local domains list includes *correct* IPs.

Note that if *any* IPs exist, ISA will add the 127/8 range - so *don't add it*.

What in Service Pack 2 fixes the slow resolution problem? Is it related somehow 
to that strange reference regarding needing to add the IP addresses of the 
domains included in the Web browser Direct Access list?
Seems like a PIA, given that I have no idea what addresses Microsoft.com, et 
al. use and when they change over time.
