WebGUI/lib/Spectre/Admin.pm relies on env_proxy before checking if spectre can communicate with the WebGUI site.

When a site uses env_proxy to get to the web, but spectre is running on the same box as WebGUI, env_proxy checks keep spectre from checking properly. If spectre can check if it's on the same subnet as the WebGUI site, it should ignore the env_proxy before test and connect.

The lines I'm referring to:

		$userAgent->env_proxy;

There isn't a reliable way to detect when spectre and WebGUI are on the same subnet, so I added a configuration variable instead.

In spectre.conf, 'ignoreEnvProxy' will allow you disable the use of the proxy environment variables.
