It is a system wide proxy configuration dialog that sets proxy configuration for every application that uses the KIO subsystem. Applications can override the system wide settings by providing their own dialog box and use the KIO meta-data system to override the system wide proxy configuration, but almost none of them do so because it makes little sense. Why would you want to use proxy in one application, but not another ? Especially since those applications will never even know that there is a proxy setup ?
i sometimes need proxy for connecting to a specific network, but that proxy is slower than connecting directly to the internet and uses protocol whitelisting. what is the difference between "use system proxy configuration" and "use manually specified proxy configurations" options?

The system proxy configuration is what is setup by the OS or the environment itself. On Unix based or Linux systems that would mean shell environment variables such as HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY. On Windows it is the system wide proxy settings provided through Qt's networking classes. Manual configuration on the other hand is you (the user) manually entering the proxy address into the configuration dialog. If you only need proxy for connecting to certain networks then I suggest, you can do one of two things: 1. Create a proxy autoconfguration file (PAC files) to set up you proxy configuration and set that file under "Use proxy auto configuration URL" in the proxy dialog. You can check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_auto-config to see how to create a PAC file. It is really simple. 2. Manually set the proxy information under "Use manually specified proxy configuration", add the address (a comma-separated list if more than one) of the network you want to use proxy for in the "Exceptions" box, and then check the "Use proxy settings only for addresses in the Exceptions list".
