Ok.. i dont know whether this is in the correct part.. please feel free to move it if it is..

what it is i have win XP SP2 on my laptop and i have a wireless network at my home.. i took my laptop into skool today and found they have a wireless network however i need to enable IEs proxy settings to a ip and a port

i got home and i cannot access the internet without going to internet options > connections > LAN Settings > Unchecking the proxy setting box...

i was wondering whether there is a reg or bat file that i can make to enable me to click on one of em and either diasble or enable the proxy settings to save me the hassle of opening internet options > connections > LAN Settings > Unchecking the proxy setting box...
also i dont really wanna have to restart the laptop after i have done this...

Ya the registry setting to turn on and off the proxy is easy.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
"ProxyEnable"=dword:00000000


Save the above as ProxyOff.reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
"ProxyEnable"=dword:00000001


Save the above as ProxyOn.reg

Simple. You have to make sure IE isn't running when you load these files. Otherwize they work on the fly.
