Default LAN Settings in IE

I installed Vista RC1 yesterday and has been working fine. This morning I
connected it up to my domain and still works ok. My only problem is that if
I log on as a local administrator the ability to change the Proxy settings in
IE are disabled. This doesn't happen for our XP machines. I've check the
local policy and can't see anything to cause this problem. Any suggestions,
or is this a known bug?

Thanks for any help.

Dan.

Hi Dan,

You have to right-click on the IE7 icon and select Run as Administrator.
That way it should work. Good luck!
