So under | Start (menu) | Settings | Connections (tab) | Connections (icon)
| Advanced (tab) | Select Networks (box) | Do you have a Home, My ISP, My
Work Network, and perhaps one more settings?
And then what you are seeing is if you make your "work with a Socks 5 proxy
server" active the "home" connection with just the first line check in the
proxy setting becomes unchecked? I suspect as when we just check the first
line, we are not using the proxy server settings as Microsoft intended that
we may be stuck with this action.
