That's the same dialog you can reach via IE's tools menu. It's per-user
because it modifies this registry key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Connections

winhttp supports this but not automatically; it's up to the application
to call WinHttpGetIEProxyConfigForCurrentUser.

If native IE doesn't work for you on Wine, try exporting that key from
Windows and importing it in Wine.
