Hi

I have it set up with 15  domains in the "no proxy for" box on 
Netscape Navigator Gold  3.01 and it seems to  works fine with or without a 
space after the comma, I also put a hard return after each domain as 
it is easier to manage a  column of domains rather than one long string.
You can also enter in just a part of the domain, ie. I have .nz which 
allows all New Zealand sites, or you could put .edu to allow all 
educational sites. Perhaps your problem lies elsewhere? I take it 
that you can get to the problem domains if you select No Proxies 
instead of Manual Proxy Configuration? Send me a list of the domains 
that you are using if you like and I will try them here. 

Regards
Glen
