The default for Firefox is to use the system's settings for internet connections so I assume you don't want to set a proxy for all internet access?<br />
And, did you set the GPO to run the firefox_startup.vbs every time they login? &nbsp;You may need to.

That's indeed the case... but we might revert this policy...<br />

Hello<br />
<br />
I am trying to manage Firefox proxies via GPO using <a href="http://www.websense.com/content/support/library/web/hosted/getting_started/apply_policy.aspx" rel="ugc">this procedure</a>. This is a Server 2012r2 environment.<br />
<br />
For some reason it works the first time the user logs in ... but not thereafter !<br />
<br />
I'm really stumped... no error logged in event log... just not working :(
