How to prevent client from applying proxy server

We have recently removed Firewall Client and Proxy from our Small Business
Server 2004 network. Nonetheless, some machines on the network still apply
the proxy setting in Internet Explorer when a user logs onto a PC for the
first time.

Is there a way to prevent this behavior?

Thanks in advance,

There are several ways to auto-configure your proxy server. You must be
using one of them. They are as follows:

-- WPAD: DNS

An alias (C-Name) in DNS that points to the proxy server.


-- WPAD: DHCP

A custom DHCP attribute that points to the proxy. I think it's option
number 252.


-- Setting via GPO. Check your GPOs. You'll find the appropriate policy
object here:

\User Configuration\ Windows Settings\ Internet Explorer Maintenance\
Connection\ Proxy Settings
