Hello Cary,
Thank you very much for the reply. I have never create a
Group Policy yet and I just want to make sure if I
understood what I should do. We have MyUsers OU in our AD,
and there is a Group Policy where Proxy setting is
disabled in User Configuration-> Internet Explorer
Maintenance -> Connection.

Now are you suggestion I should create a new OU as
MyComputers and under MyUsers and move my two computers
from Computers container to MyComputers OU and create a
new policy on it and set Group Policy Loopback Processing
enabled in Computer Configuration.

Also I have another question, my two computers are client
computers in the remote location connected through VPN,
they are not in my LAN, does this make any difference?
Thank you very much for your help in advance.
Carla.
