Hi and

You are being forced through the proxy servers I am afriad.
May I ask what type of remote servers/aplications you are connecting to. If its something like terminal services then the proxy has nothing to do with it. If its web based then its not just the fact that you are being routed via the proxy that is to blame but the fact that the server is not reading the headers correctly.
I am not sure if business connection are suposed to be proxy'd myself. We need an NTL tech to confirm this. They were not proxy'd where I used to work. We had a fibre connectoin to NTL.
