Having an issue opening dynamic links in IE9 on Win 7 PC's using Forefront Proxy servers
We have just forced all user PC's to use the internet proxies only and they no longer have direct internet access. Everything is working fine for everyone but we have come across a few problems with dynamic links from various websites.
We receive emails with links like the one below through email when the user clicks on the link it dose not open. It looks like any web page link with a "?" in it causes this problem
We can see the computer not using the proxy for some reason and trying to go directly to the internet and hitting the firewall which is blocking it. Not sure why the PC in not using the proxy.pac file? Even if we copy and past the link into IE9 MOST of the time the link dose not work.
However if a user opens in a separate IE session the below link first then clicks on the problem link from an email it now works but only when the below page is already open on the users PC.

The other fix we found is if we set the proxy settings manually with the port in the lower part of the IE settings on the users PC.
The preference is to use the proxy.pac file and would like to find a way to make this work.
