Hi: I'm a newbie for MP and can't seem to get the weather working. It complains about no internet connection. I can't seem to find out where to set the proxy as I'm behind one. I thought it would just pick it up from my browser settings???

Running proxycfg -u should help you, if your IE is working.

I found the posting using the search function of the forum (weather and proxy).

Please post if this solved your problem.

Code:
C:\>proxycfg -?

Microsoft (R) WinHTTP-Standard-Proxykonfigurationstool
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. Alle Rechte vorbehalten.

Syntax:

    proxycfg -?  : Hilfeinformationen anzeigen

    proxycfg     : Aktuelle WinHTTP-Proxyeinstellungen anzeigen

    proxycfg [-d] [-p <Servername> [<Umgehungsliste>]]

        -d : Direkten Zugriff einstellen
        -p : Proxyserver und optionale Umgehungsliste festlegen

    proxycfg -u  : Proxyeinstellungen von aktuellen manuellen Einstellungen des
                   Benutzers in Microsoft Internet Explorer (in HKCU)
                   importieren

Hi

I read through that post and my settings from proxycfg are as follows:

PROXY_TYPE_DIRECT | PROXY_TYPE_PROXY

There is a bypass list which i can't modify. So the issue still exists. Even if i do a -u

Any ideas

Did you execute proxycfg -u with the windows run command?

Sorry, but I can't help you with something else if this doesn't fix your problem. Thought it should help...
