Proxy Problem
Hello, First post here. I'm having a couple a problems and would like some help if I could get it please.
My daughter has done some thing to this computer so that WHATEVER I do or try to do I get a window that says " Connect to proxy.uconn,edu" and asks for a password. I can get by it by simply clicking on 'cancel' (1-4 times), but I'd like for the computer (this is my computer) to not even acknowledge that proxy window. How can I get rid of this? Thanks Gary ASUS A7NX8-E Deluxe AMD 2500+ Radeon 9200 1.25 Gb RAM Windows XP w/sp2 |

What browser are you using? IE? Firefox?

ok you could try opening IE then click on Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections Tab -> LAN Settings -> and untick the box that says "Use a proxy server for your..."
hopefully that will solve your problem.
