Try closing all IE windows and use the Control Panel's
Internet Options applet instead. I once had to do that
to make Proxy settings stick and got into the habit of
changing all Connnections settings that way.
E.g. Run... (press Win-R and enter
control inetcpl.cpl,,4
In fact, I discovered that I could do it that way
and still leave IE windows open and they would
then work with the changed settings. YMMV.
Oh. This is Vista? Haven't tried this on it yet.
I suppose it might also be necessary to start
control.exe and Run as... Administrator too.
