With all the recent talk about Fiddler (Here, and here for example), I decided to give it a try. Imagine my suprise when nothing would show up in Fiddler. A little checking around shows that the proxy isn't enabled for VPN connections. This won't apply to me, I think, I've disabled the VPN gateway so it's only used for connections to those machines, and I'm not checking those machines... but it does.

Even if you disable the gateway on the VPN so the only traffic flowing through the VPN is to the corporate network, the entire proxy setting is disabled. This really sucks. If I want to use Fiddler, I either have to disable the VPN connection every time, or rework my entire network to put the VPN connection on another machine or router. <frown>

Some days, high level business rules in the systems just suck. (This is an IE problem, not fiddler, but it's still sucks)
