The windows host get his proxy configuration via group police from the Active 
Directory. The group policy points to a specific file wpad.dat formerly known 
as proxy.pac
This is a configuration used for IE and Chrome automatically from the hosts.

How Python finds this out and is using this is unclear to me. There is 
definitely no environment variable setting done.

request and urllib2 both are failing

I was guessing so too. Especially cos all help site tell me how to specify 
proxy objects for use with requests lib. But obviously there is something 
existing.
