Not VIPRE specific, but in general I've found that configuring a WPAD.DAT so 
that IE automatically configures(and bypasses the proxy when required) is the 
least painless way, particularly with Windows 7.  Here's the one I'm using:-


function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {


// If URL has no dots in host name, send traffic direct.
                if (isPlainHostName(host))
                                return "DIRECT";


// If IP address is internal or hostname resolves to internal IP, send direct.

                var resolved_ip = dnsResolve(host);

                if (isInNet(resolved_ip, "10.0.0.0", "255.0.0.0") ||
                                isInNet(resolved_ip, "172.16.0.0",  
"255.240.0.0") ||
                                isInNet(resolved_ip, "192.168.0.0", 
"255.255.0.0") ||
                                isInNet(resolved_ip, "127.0.0.0", 
"255.255.255.0"))
                                return "DIRECT";


// All other traffic uses below proxies, in fail-over order.
                return "PROXY myproxy.mydomain.com:8080; DIRECT";
}

Kind Regards,

James.

Subject: Vipre and proxy settings

Trying to get Vipre Enterprise to not use a proxy, even though its configured 
not to, like all .Net apps
it insists on using ie's settings.

How does one figure out what version of .net an app uses?
According to http://geekswithblogs.net/mnf/archive/2006/03/08/71663.aspx it 
seems 
machine.config<http://geekswithblogs.net/mnf/archive/2006/03/08/71663.aspx%20it%20seems%20machine.config>
 may
not be enough Web.config for the specific version might be needed.

Thanks,
jlc
