Does the registry location of IE proxy settings vary between versions of IE and Windows?

Under Windows XP, using Internet Explorer 6, the location of the proxy server is stored in:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings

Does this differ with Internet Explorer 7/8/9 or Windows Vista/7?

This article of Microsoft confirms that the registry path you gave,

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]

is valid for IE6, IE7 and IE8. It makes no difference being on Windows XP, Vista or 7.
