I'm sorry, but that is an unrealistic thing to "want". If the proxy cannot
resolve internal names then it will not be able to verify if a FQDN is
internal of external because it won't be able to resolve it, then it will
not be able to compare it to the LAT to determine if it should be processed
by the proxy services or allow to function directly.
In an Active Directory Environment (Win2000 or 2003) the proxy must use the
Internal DNS to resolve names, then the DNS Server will use "Forwarders" to
pass the requests to the ISP's DNS for name it cannot resolve from its own
database.

Because it won't function on the Domain properly. It will start having
trouble finding the Domain Controller and authentication will either fail or
at least become unreliable.
