Hi Alex!
When running HM on W2K server or XP Pro, then HM depend on the IE settings regarding Proxy Settings! Why? Even though I have made my IE work through a Proxy Server, then HM should keep on working directly, right?
Cheers,
Hans Mosegaard

If you go into the Options menu and then select the Connections tab, you should select the second option, "connect directly to net". If you have the first and default option "use registry configuration" specified, it will use your IE Settings.

Correct. By default HostMonitor uses IE settings.
