Hi,
I am stuck with a similar problem. I later found out that the proxy I
am behind is a FTP proxy over an HTTP tunnel.
One way to find that out is to try and open a ftp site in a browser
like IE and it shows a warning message like, "Your proxy allows only
read only access to the FTP location".
I am not very sure how to get through it, but still trying!
Regards,
Bindul
