problems accessing authenticated pac file

[Iain Tait]

We use a proxy pac file to route internet traffic to our gateway.
This is currently sitting within our intranet site on a website
protected by integrated windows authentication. We do not allow
anonymous access to our intranet.
This pac file works correctly in IE & firefox, but on loading Fiddler
all internet traffic is blocked. From viewing the logs this is a
result of the requests from fiddler for the pac file not carrying the
users credentials so the pac file is not being returned.

As a workaround I will set up a website specific for the proxy, but
wondered if there was any reason the credentials were not carried
forward when requesting the pac file as they are included when normal
intranet traffic is being analysed?

Many thanks

Try this:

1> Close Fiddler
2> Create a new REG_SZ named AutoProxyLogon inside of HKCU\Software
\Microsoft\Fiddler2
3> Set the string value of the new entry to TRUE
4> Restart Fiddler

Does this work for you?
