I downloaded Mozilla [GO FREEWARE!!] and it's working fine, but if anyone can offer any insight into the reason that IE is screwy ;like that i'd appreciate it. (ANd I know it's b/c microsoft sucks but i need a nother reason)
Thanks!!

But don't hold your breath. The present system is still working ~99.67% of the time, so there's no need at this time.
It's probablly just a glitch. Setting the Proxy flag would only (potentially) create other problems if he's not behind a proxy/NAT as it (necessairly) lowers security.

I mean sure, it's no big deal, but still... here's me treading carefully so's not to get spanked and you go blabbering about it ;)
Hrm... and since I'm posting and you'll prolly know, Kev, what's the deal with web browsing and proxies at your ISP? That's what the proxy flag was for, right, and coz like, some ISP's have local web caches or proxies that stops the MOO and Sindome website from being able to figure out you're the same person?
Never used Mozilla, but I'm aware it can do some funky stuff with stopping pop-ups and other unnecessaries, just presumed it did something funky with ISP web proxies doo-dahs and such.
My cats breath smells of cat food...
Why do people run from me?

I bent my wookie :(
As any member of the security community will tell you, security through obscurity is not security. It dosn't take a genius to figgure out the implications of setting the proxy flag, which we have done for many people in the past.

A transparent proxy does (read: should) not pose a problem in this case unless it's incorrectly configured. You hear of this every so often, and as soon as it's discovered, it's usually properly configured.
