So far I can use the folder and file and ping to the proxy server, but when I want to connect to Internet through proxy server. It give a result page error connot open. Beside that I notis that at the Internet option-connection-LAN Proxy show these message "LAN Setting Do Not Apply Connections. Choose Setting Above For Dial-Up Setting.". Please help me to solve this problem. TQ

Sounds like your settings are incorrect!

Call your admin and ask for the correct settings. I.e name orIP and port of the proxy! Then go to your control panel and double click on the internet settings icon. Open the connection slate and them clickon the button where it says LAN settings. In this window insert your proxy and the port number.

If this does not help you are looking at the possibility of having a proxy that does not work correctly.

I already insert the proxy ip address and also the port number. But the message still there and cannot connect to Internet.

Try putting in the name of the proxy server, and port set to 80. Make sure you get the correct name of the server from the admin, or check a machine that is working. Make sure that Auto detect and Use automatic config are also unchecked.
