Just updated to 7.0.1 and regardless of what I select or change in advanced/network settings, the browser always goes back to manual proxy, as the default, in a new session. I have tried every possible proxy setting combination and saved, but each time I open a new session, the default reverts back to manual, and wont open any web pages until I change the proxy settings for each page I visit! Damned annoying. How do I stop this?
