Just out of curiosity, does anyone else here access the forums through a proxy? I've had to for several months with ADSL and there are no problems. I can tell when new posts arrive and what not. There is only one problem, when I post something it doesn't show up until I do the fancy "ctrl-reload" thing to bypass the proxy. Which means normally, I do a thrash dance trying to see why my computer ate my message.

Is there anyway to set IE5 or NS4 to automatically bypass a proxy all the time at specific sites without using the "ctrl-reload" thing all the time?
