GPO to set firefox proxy

firefoxgroup-policyPROXY

CONTEXT

  • I have recently assigned to restructure a corporate network that contains about 100 client computers.
  • There is an active directory domain (2003 functional level) for the whole network.
  • The user uses two browsers: IE and Firefox

I have to switch from normal proxy (configured on each machine) to transparent proxy so i have to remove proxy settings from IE and Firefox (I have already implemented the GPO for IE with no problem)

PROBLEM

I want to use GPO or similar to disable proxy in firefox, i looked up on google but with no luck

OPPORTUNITY

The company is located in a single site so the amministrative effort to implement the solution must be less than change directly the settings on each computer.

Thank you in advance
