it was only tyring different ports with the non auto and i was trying that even though i knew it wasn't the right thing to do for out situation to see if i recieved different results.
Are you asking me to change port that my computer uses in it's network settings to be port 80 along with the port that authroxy uses for it's local host?

My suggestion is to use the proxy address you have been supplying as the PAC file address. Safari does not have built in support for PAC files, so try using the PAC option in Authoxy. Your Network preferences' Proxy setting will then point to 127.0.0.1 port 8080 (or whatever you choose).

What happens then? By that I mean, what exactly do you see? Error messages, entries in the messages tab window, browser status messages, browser action?

That is what it first tired Use this automatic configuration file of http://proxy.fccc.edu using port 8080.
it then lets me load pages that are not supposed to be proxied but it gives me the file i sent in the previous message as a download.
No errors.

Try port 80. In fact, where are you specifying a port? There should be not be a port specification for an automatic configuration file, since it is downloaded over http (port 80). It is hard to be sure of course, but it still sounds like something (your browser I imagine) is treating http://proxy.fccc.edu as your proxy server. It should be treating it as a URL to download the PAC file from.
