Setting global proxy options using InternetSetOptions()

Hi All,

I use InternetSetOption(NULL, INTERNET_OPTION_PER_CONNECTION_OPTION,...) to
modify IE's proxy exception list.

What happens if user is subject to a global policy regarding proxy settings?
Does IE look at its "standard" proxy settings or does it pull them from I
don't where due to the policy? Does the policy management simply consist in
modifying these "standard" settings whenever user logs in?

Also, what happens if user uses an automatic configuration script? Do
"standard" settings still apply in addition to the what the script says?

TIA,

Serge.
