RE: supressing IE

1. Use GPO to set IE to use a proxy config script and point it to a file on
the network somewhere.
2. Make a proxy config script like:
function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
        {
        if (isInNet(host, "192.168.0.0", "255.255.0.0"))
            return "DIRECT";
          if (isInNet(host, "127.0.0.0", "255.0.0.0"))
                return "DIRECT";
        else
            return "SOCKS 127.0.0.1:1080";
        }

Replace 192.168.0.0 and 255.255.0.0 with your local network and mask.

Anything for local machines will go direct; anything for outside will try to
go to a non-existent proxy SOCKS server.

You can do this without GPO, but you'll need to manually lock down IE to
only use the proxy config script, then.
