Go to Tools menu, and click on Internet Options.

In the window that appears click on “Internet connections” tab, and then on the “LAN Settings” button.

You need to click the “Use a proxy server” checkbox, and then enter in the Address box the address “0.0.0.0” and in the Port box “80” (without the quotes, just like in the image above). Click the OK button twice.


What we are doing is telling IE that we want to use a proxy server and that its address is one that doesn’t exist. So when IE tries to go online it won’t be able to, because he can’t access the proxy.

If you decide that you still want to use IE at some point in time, just uncheck the "Use a proxy server" checkbox (from the last image), and everything will be back to normal. Hope this helps!
