No. You need to restart the program itself.

If you want techical details - OS/2 caches all DNS lookups. When proxy 
looking for specific address for a first time, OS/2 remebers the answer. 
On the next lookups, the same remebmered value will be returned and no 
actual lookup will be made. But proxy uses only first address of 
returned list, and it always will be same.
