go to TOOLS then OPTIONS then ADVANCED then NETWORK tab then SETTINGS tab and select the options NO PROXY click OK and OK again in the next screen. With that you have disabled the proxy settings.


if you like to not disable the proxy settings choose : Auto-detect proxy settings for this network

thank you
