For use of Firefox within our company I would like to configure the connection settings centrally. One example of such a setting is the automatic proxy configuration url; http://server1.acme.com This server (hosting the .pac or wpad.dat file) needs to be different per location.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== Directly after installing, if no proxy configured there will be no internet access
