Charles,

Unfortunately MandrakeUpdate does use wget to do file transfers.

Are there any similar tools that can get through that proxy?  If so, a
kludge would be to put one of them in place of wget on your system, and
maybe write a shell script wrapper to call it with the right options.

                                -pete
