my find just got cable and they have it runin throught a poxy and im tryin to help him get rid of it so he can go faster with his net.
People on @home cable do not need there software on computer, you may add/remove it without problems, but the only way to get rid of all of it is to reformat, the only thing you need from @home is the modem, the computer name, and workgroup or domain which is : @home, no proxy server, here is post by Cablenut on that subject and how to disable it: How to remove @home proxy server
Posted by Cablenut:
Proxy servers are generally SLOWER for your web browsing. This is because it caches everthing to a remote server that is overloaded and just adds more hops in your path. They are intended to let the cable company watch where you go!
To disable proxy server of @homes, go to start, run,
type: regsvr32 -u ahiehelp.dll (Space between 2 and -) This will disable proxy for good. Go to Control Panel, internet options, connection tab at top, LAN settings at bottom, click. Uncheck Automatic Detection and uncheck use proxy server, your done.
Nothing should be checked, reboot
