On a couple of my systems, I lose the checkmark for the proxy setting when the P.C. is shutdown at night. The proxy IP and port setting stays but the checkmark does not. The O/S is Windows NT 4.0 service pack 6. The Internet browser is IE5.5 sp1.Does anybody have an idea what would cause this and how I could fix it.

You don't have any kind of login (WSH or other) running when you logon do you? I know that we use logon script to change/update the proxy settings and security settings on a number of systems by writing to the registry. These changes are made every time a user logs in to provide a "safeguard" against sers changing these settings on their own.

The only logon script I am running is to assign drives to the users and sychronize the time to the server.
