I access the internet though an NTL broadband connection. Do you think I should perhaps disable the "Direct connection" option and insert some URLs into the "HTTP Proxy" and associated "Port" boxes under the "Manual Proxy Configuration" section???
NTL run transparent caches and proxies, and they are known to break.
AFAIK they don't intercept DNS, however. (I'm not sure what the point would be anyway, it's not exactly a high-bandwidth protocol.)
