Further to the original message I have a work around which I am not sure is
correct or not.
If IE is configured as such:
Proxy server address = wwwoffle-server
Proxy server port = 8080
Bypass proxy server for local addresses = not checked
Advanced options
Exceptions = http://wwwoffle-server/
If the '/' is not at the end of the exception then I get the below error.
Microsoft has an article which gave me the idea to try this: Microsoft

PM Subject: Proxy Authentication Issues
and IE6
Hi,
I am running WWWOffle 2.7f on both RedHat and in the Cygwin environment and
am having problems with Proxy Authentication.
After configuring the AllowedConnectedUsers with a specific user I
experience the following:
1. Connecting to a website (not the local web server) prompts for the
username and password.
2. Connecting to the local webserver configuration port (
http://servername:8080) returns the error "Access to the WWWOFFLE Proxy is
controlled, user authentication is required."
When using Netscape I do not experience these problems. I have tried
turning off the HTTP 1.1 settings within IE6 without any success.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Regards
Andrew
