This article was previously published under Q302224 SYMPTOMS When you use the Group Policy Object Editor, and you
configure the proxy settings, the text box that contains the proxy exception
list may be truncated if more than 255 characters are used. Also, if you
previously clicked to select the Do not use proxy server for
local check box, the check box may be cleared.CAUSE Because of a limitation in the way INS files are read, the
proxy exception list is limited to 255 characters. The Do not use proxy
server for local check box appends the text "<LOCAL>;" to the
end of the list. This text is eight characters long, and the 255 characters
must include these characters. Therefore, when you click to select the
Do not use proxy server for local check box, the total length
of the exception list is actually 247 characters.RESOLUTIONAfter you install this hotfix, the proxy exception list is
limited to 1024 characters. Windows XPHotfix informationA supported hotfix is now
