GPO Proxy Settings IE7 Windows 2003

Running Windows 2003 R2 and XP SP3.

I am trying to setup IE7 so that it automatically picks up proxy settings from a new GPO I have created. See the attached picture for the GPO settings.

I have used gpresult and gpupdate /force (plus a reboot) in commandline and rsop.exe. All these tools are tell me that the test user inside the OU I have created the GPO inside should have all the settings as I specified.

The defualt domain group policy has no proxy settings or anything else I can tell that might cause problems with a GPO further down the tree.

Problems:
Inside the test OU, logged on with the test user, the proxy address is found but the exceptions are not.
Outside of the test OU I can't get the exceptions to remain inside the proxy settings in IE7 (Internet Options/connections/LAN settings)

500 Points for answer as I am completely beat.
