We have a Http proxy in our network and its not a transparent proxy- I need to edit this in the browser of each computer and don't want the users to remove the proxy from the browser- How can I achieve this- What are the registry keys (In Win XP )being accessed when some one changes the proxy settings .

regards,

Joshi

You can use a mozilla.cfg file to lock prefs or specify default values.

You can place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder to specify using mozilla.cfg. 

pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg").


You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg: 

defaultPref();  // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes
lockPref();  // lock pref, disallow changes
