Why would you want to do that?

Manual proxy configuration is highly preferred in favor of transparent 
interception.

If the browser insist on using a proxy then the proxy has to react to 
the connection. It can either

a) Not respond to the connection, which will cause browsers using 
autoconfig scripts to move on to the next priority proxy server

b) Accept the connection and return a error message to the user 
(preferrably including instructions on what the user should do to get 
rid of the error)

c) Accept the request and fetch the requested object for the user, 
which would be the normal action for a proxy.
