+ Proxy list used = proxy:8080 (WindowsUpdate.log)

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi!

I would like to know where Automatic Updates are getting this setting
(Proxyservername:port), since I never configured a proxy on this server, and
the one specified do not exist anymore in the the company.

And due to that, Automatic Updates are failing all communications with the
WSUS server...

So, I cleared ALL Connections configuration under Internet Settings in the
registry, run proxycfg -d, re-installed Automatic Updates with the special
rundll command, reset the SoftwareDistribution directory many times, reboot
the server, STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM:

+ Proxy list used = proxy:8080

Where Automatic Updates are getting this setting?

Thanks.
