Any of you network admins having an issue lately where the proxy server is turning itself on? I have five or so cases of users reporting network issues and each time I have looked the proxy settings have turned themselves on. It was getting bad enough where I had to implement a gpo policy to prevent it from being turned on. It started happening two weeks ago, I am not sure if a windows update is causing this issue but with the spread of users, I don’t think they are doing it. Not this many all at once in such a short timeframe. I also have not had this happen with my users before. I will let you know if forcing a prevent change gpo mitigates this issue.
PS the proxy address is always the 127 loopback address.
