IE7 Causes Proxy Prompts During Unattended Deployment

[snooz]

It wants the proxy when validating winxp and installing updates. You can disable the updates in IEAK but the validation is another story. I know there are some ways to get around that but I am creating this for a corporate environment.

I have been hacking away trying to figure out how to bypass this with limited success. The only clean way I have found is to stop the dhcp service. This prevents interuption and when the machine reboots of course the service starts up again.

I have tried scripting things but it forces me to remove the proxy information from the IEAK package and causes other problems.

I have tried every switch known to man and none of them suppress the prompts.

I have looked through all the INF's and I cannot find anything.

Has anyone else had this same problem and found a solution? If nobody here has found anything I will be forced to open a case with Microsoft.

Thanks Guys
