Group Policy to enable 'bypass proxy server for local addresses" in IE 8

[darrenshan]

Does anyone know if there is a GP setting that will enable/force the option 'bypass proxy server for local addresses" in Internet Explorer 8?

You can do it with Group Policy Preferences: User Configuration > Preferences > Control Panel Settings > Internet Settings. Right-click on Internet Settings and selecte New > Internet Explorer X (where X is your version of IE). Go to the Connections tab > LAN Settings and set your proxy settings. You can also do it under User Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Internet Explorer Maintenance > Connection > Proxy Settings.
