Fix #4

  1. Open your start menu
  2. Type Internet Options and click the item that appears
  3. Click the Connections tab
  4. Click the LAN Settings button
  5. Check if there is anything in the Address box in the Proxy server section. If there is, see below.

  7. Press OK twice.

NOTE: There are very few reasons to have a proxy server set at home. If you have one set in the box shown above you might have malware on your machine. You should run a scan from a reputable anti-malware package as simply removing the proxy server using the steps above will not be enough to remove it.

If the LAN Settings box IS disabled, and you ARE at home, you can do the following:

1)Press the Windows Key

2)Type in Notepad and press ENTER to open it

3) Paste in the below

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel] "Connection Settings"=dword:00000000 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings] "ProxySettingsPerUser"=dword:00000001

4. Save the file to your desktop by going to File then Save as, then navigating to the Desktop. Type in "FixAshbeard.reg" including double quotes and click Save.  

5. Go to your desktop and double click the file. You'll be asked for confirmation to apply it.
