    Internet Explorer - Help with automatic proxy caching

    I use internet explorer as my default browser. Presently i use Internet Explorer 8. Often when i configure Internet Explorer to use automatic proxy configuration it caches the returned information or it caches the proxy that is returned by the FindProxyForURL call. Sometimes i get error message too when proxy server fails.

    Do you have any suggestion regarding the same ?

    What you can do in this case is you can disable Automatic Proxy Caching in order to ensure that the Internet Explorer checks for the latest information at any time.Do disable Automatic Proxy Caching, you need to make some changes in registry. Follow this steps:-

    1. Go to start > Run > type regedit and press Enter.

    2. Now locate the following folder : HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings

    3. Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value, called "EnableAutoProxyResultCache" and set the value 0.

    4. Click OK and exit Windows Registry Editor.

    5. Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

    Thats it.. This will disable the automatic proxy caching and your browser will checks for the latest information.If you want to enable automatic proxy caching any time in future, just set it “1″ or simply delete the this key.

    If the registry key is not present, you can create the registry key by using the following registry file:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

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