   I got a call today from someone who "couldn't connect to the Internet". IE   
   was throwing them a page not found error no matter where they tried to surf.   
   (Of course, if IE can't connect then there's something wrong with the   
   connection, there has to be! NOT)   
      
   Someone had gone in and changed Internet Exploder's settings. No one would   
   'fess up, but the option to use a proxy server had been enabled.
