How do I really disable Thesaurus checking for online content?

[James L]

I'm at work and we use a firewall with autoproxy authentication. Every time
I use the thesaurus in Word 2003, I am prompted for the internet firewall ID
and password. I have disabled the use of online content and unchecked all
services in Word Help--Research Options except for Thesaurus (U.S.).

It looks like the Thesaurus is at least checking for an Internet connection?
If so, can that be disabled? I have IE 6 with SP1 and all current security
patches, on a Windows 2000 platform.

Also have checked the registry for both HKEY_CU and HKEY_LM policies which
either force or block online content and neither is applicable.

Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks!

Try Word 2003 Newsgroup?

OK. Question re-posted in Word 2003 newsgroup. Any way to delete this one?
