Because Proxy Auto Configuration performs DNS lookups,
the proxy settings are being cached. For long-running
programs this means that once users switch e.g. from or
to company networks with a proxy, they instantly will
lose connectivity because we cache the old setting.
To remedy this, we monitor the Registry (locations
courtesy of Chromium's platform support) for changes
in its settings, and requery for the current proxy in
that case.
