Squid, yes, they switched to Linux. You are a God, Sterling! :-)

Exactly.

I will try it on monday once I am at my work once again.  I think it will work.

side-note: But the strange thing is, I can get to news servers thru:

system/schemes/default/proxy/host: "proxy.sec.trz.cz"
system/schemes/default/proxy/port-id: 1080
system/schemes/default/proxy/user: "usernamehere"
system/schemes/default/proxy/pass: "passwordhere"
system/schemes/default/proxy/type: "socks5"

... but maybe then I am connecting to another service running on proxy.sec.trz.cz
machine ...

Anyway, thanks once again, I think your suggestion will solve my problems ...
