MS Internet Explorer Version 5.x or 6.0

Follow these steps to configure your browser to take advantage of the Library's CalNet-Authenticating Proxy Server.

Note: Some users report that with a DSL or cable modem connection, Internet Explorer 6.0 may need to be configured as if for a dial-up connection. There also seem to be SBC variants of Internet Explorer 6.0 which have a "DSL Settings" facility; if you have such a browser, use this rather than the "LAN Settings" to configure the browser for the proxy service.

For use with a Local Area Network (LAN) with Internet Explorer 5.x or 6.0.
