    How to Customize IE Proxy settings?

    Recently bought a computer which is compatible with the Windows XP operating system. Installed the internet explorer into my computer with the proxy server setting but cannot able to access the setting in my home network. I wish to control it with the command line argument. Also like to add a batch file which will give me the access to use the proxy file in a simple manner, I can enable or disable whenever I wish. Is there any one will provide me the suggestion regarding this? Basically I used it into my home network, so any one have the proxy server setting which I can use in the home network.

    I did the process by the using of a script which is provided me by my friend. It will help you, by this now I can easily access it from my remote server (home network. It will apply in the registry editor but before that you should create a .reg file in the editor then you can able to apply the script in to the network.
    The script:
    Code:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
    "MigrateProxy"=dword:00000001
    "ProxyEnable"=dword:00000001
    "ProxyHttp1.1"=dword:00000000
    "ProxyServer"="http://ProxyServername:80"
    "ProxyOverride"="<local>"

    You can able to configure the proxy setting in the manual into your client server machine. By this you can easily update the register file of the client computer. For the option you should create a registry file in the client machine and then you can easily update the setting as you wish. And then you can distribute it into the client computer by the batch file or the script of the log in script. The method and the script that it having will help you to modify the registry editor. There may be any serious problem may occur during the modification of the registry editor. You just add a back up to the registry before make any modification. It will help if there any problem occurs.

    I also suggest you to add a back up registry in the editor that will help you to make the proxy setting, then modify the registry and the editor where you wish to set the server setting, the registry setting will be describe the setting for the server and the. After the setting you can make a proxy setting in the internet explorer tool option.
    For back up the registry:
    1.Click Start,
    2.Then click on Run, and insert the command %SystemRoot%\system32\restore\rstrui.exe, and hit on enter.
    3.The Welcome to System Restore page will appear, there click to Create a restore point, and then click Next.
    4.Click on close after creation of the restore point.
    While the system restore turned off you will got a message that ask you to turn on the system restore. Click on yes button and turn off the System Restore check box nad tyhen follow the above procedure.

    The script:
    Code:
    <script>

    Const HKLM=&H80000002 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    
    Const REG_SZ=1
    Const REG_EXPAND_SZ=2
    Const REG_BINARY=3
    Const REG_DWORD=4

    Use this script while the proxy is turned off:
    Code:
    If GetValue(HKCU,HKCU_IE_PROXY,"ProxyEnable",REG_DWORD) = 1 AND
    Len(GetValue(HKCU,HKCU_IE_PROXY,"ProxyServer",REG_SZ)) > 0 Then
    CreateValue HKCU,HKCU_IE_PROXY,"ProxyEnable",0,REG_DWORD
    wscript.echo "Proxy Disabled"
    Else
    Use the script while the proxy is turned on:
    Code:
    strProxyServer = "MyProxySvr:80"
    strProxyOveride = "*.domain.com;*.domain2.com;*domain3.com"
    
    CreateValue HKCU,HKCU_IE_PROXY,"ProxyServer",strProxyServer,REG_SZ
    CreateValue HKCU,HKCU_IE_PROXY,"ProxyEnable",1,REG_DWORD
    CreateValue HKCU,HKCU_IE_PROXY,"ProxyOverride",strProxyOveride,REG_SZ
    wscript.echo "Proxy Enabled" & vbcrlf & "(" & strProxyServer & ")"
    End If
    Code:
    End Sub
    
    Function CreateValue(Key,SubKey,ValueName,Value,KeyType)
    Select Case KeyType
    Case REG_SZ
    CreateValue = oReg.SetStringValue(Key,SubKey,ValueName,Value)
    Case REG_EXPAND_SZ
    CreateValue =
    oReg.SetExpandedStringValue(Key,SubKey,ValueName,Value)
    Case REG_BINARY
    CreateValue = oReg.SetBinaryValue(Key,SubKey,ValueName,Value)
    Case REG_DWORD
    CreateValue = oReg.SetDWORDValue(Key,SubKey,ValueName,Value)
    Case REG_MULTI_SZ
    CreateValue =
    oReg.SetMultiStringValue(Key,SubKey,ValueName,Value)
    End Select
    End Function
    
    Function DeleteValue(Key, SubKey, ValueName)
    DeleteValue = oReg.DeleteValue(Key,SubKey,ValueName)
    End Function
    
    Function GetValue(Key, SubKey, ValueName, KeyType)
