Before you edit the registry, you should first make a backup copy of the
registry files (System.dat and User.dat). Both are hidden files in the
Windows folder.
RESOLUTION

steps:
- Right-click The Internet icon on the desktop, and then click Properties.
- On the Connection tab, click the Connect Through A Proxy Server check
box to select it, and then click Settings.
If you do not know the address or port number of the proxy server, contact
your network administrator.
WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems
that may require you to reinstall Windows 95. Microsoft cannot guarantee
that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be
solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
For information about how to edit the registry, view the Changing Keys And
