issue is IE related. removing check mark in
IE "automatically detect settings" solves and creates the
problem. It has started appearing on other computers. My
opinion now after recieveing an email from a vendor whose
web servers begans having troubles with passwords etc is
that it is related to a buggy security release recently.
