[WEB4LIB] Seeking help with proxy settings in IE

[Marsha Weeks]

Hi Adele,

Here are the instructions I followed from Michael Pate (Thanks, Michael!) 
for our Gates computers, which seemed to be more picky about the way 
addresses are entered compared to our regular NT PCs...

Marsha,
We have one station that we have restricted to InfoTrac and NetLibrary. To
do so, we set the value for the proxy servers to:
http=127.0.0.1:8080;https=127.0.0.1:8080;ftp=127.0.0.1:8080;gopher=127.0.0.1
:8080

And the values not restricted are:
*.galegroup.com;*.netlibrary.com;*.akamai.net
I intend to add some other locations over time but these are working for
now.
