      Description

        Java 8, IE, proxy pac file

        A statement like the following

           if shExpMatch (host, "*.test") return "DIRECT;";

        will lead to wrong proxy direction (in this case to DIRECT) for a Java applet with the url http://someapplet.test.com

        Obviously the wildcarding is broken. *.test should not match someapplet.test.com

        The funny thing is that thisworks fine for FF. Only IE is affected.

        And only Java applets. Regular HTML urls are not impacted.
