    I'm at my uni now using it's wireless service. And there's this pop-up that keeps coming up titled Windows Security and asks me for my username and password to access au-http-proxy.csm.adelaide.edu.au

    I would just login and stop it from pestering me, but the domain is "BELGAROTH", which is the name of my computer. I believe univerisites only allow me to login under the domain of STUDENT or something.

    Is there a way to change my domain or stop it from pestering me? I can't click away from it, so I can't just ignore it
