I installed apache web server on win2k and mysql. whenever i went to the internet instead letting me use my dial up connection the page would do a loopback. i looked at tools - internet options - connections tab.
looked at
1) LAN settings and the Proxy Server section will always be checked for Use a proxy server and bypass proxy server
2) Settings button under Dial-Up & VPN settings and under the proxy server again the use a proxy server and bypass proxy server are always checked.

Both have entries for HTTP: Localhost and Port: 8081

If i manually uncheck it and reboot my box it appears checked again. How can i get rid of this. I have uninstalled apache and mysql. I suspect apache installed some bat file somwhere. Can anyone help me.
