Hello,

I was wondering if there was a command line argument in Internet Explorer 6
where you can disable the proxy server address/automatic configuration script
when you launch the "iexplore.exe" executable (via a shortcut or on the run
command)?

For example "c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe /<switch to
disable the proxy server address/automatic configuration script>"

We have a website outside our local intranet that we need to access and our
automatic configuration script server does not allow access to it. Every
time we need to access this site, we need to uncheck the setting for the auto
config script in IE (Tools, Internet Options, Connections, LAN settings) and
when we want to browse our intranet again we need to go back in and re-check
that setting.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

There is no command line switch that will do what you want. What you need
is a program that will easily switch your proxy settings on-the-fly -
without having to go into IE's settings:
