I use my notebook in two locations. At home, with a wireless network and NO proxy server and at University logged onto the university wireless network which requires a proxy server.
The problem is, whenever I use the university network, whilst my internet browsers etc can automatically detect settings. With Norton, I have to manually change between proxy and non-proxy if I want to obtain updates whilst using the university wireless internet.
I've used Sophos in the past, and that had a setting to only use proxy settings, when it detected them, otherwise it simply used a direct connection to the internet. All this could be configured upon first starting the program.
Why does Norton not auto-detect whether a internet connection has a proxy/non proxy network?
