I would need a script that shall change the internet setting 'proxy

there.
This just to avoid having to go around to each computer to manually apply
the change.
Fortunately, this is not possible with client-side scripting in a
standard-installed Web browser (think of the security issues if it
were). However, if you used a proxy script, you would not have
that problem in the future:

(Works also for IE and Opera; ask Google about "proxy pac" etc.)
If you have administrative access to the clients via a LAN and if the
clients are running a Windows NT kernel, it is possible to perform the
required Registry setting changes using remote Registry access, so at
least you don't have to go around. Depending on the number of clients,
it would be an afternoon's work, though, unless you find a way to
automate it.
