Automating the configuration of Internet Options / Lan Settings

I got tired of manually changing my Internet Options / Lan Settings. It was really time to say goodbye to the dialog below:

With the help of How to add, modify, or delete registry subkeys and values by using a registration entries (.reg) file i wrote two little files that add/remove the automatic configuration location.The work.reg file looks like:

REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
“AutoConfigURL”=”http://192.168.1.99/”

And the home.reg file looks like:

REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
“AutoConfigURL”=-
