If you need PCI-compliance, IMO, you should be placing the data and operations involved within their own network, and requiring the affected data to stay within those bounds. Software development should occur outside those boundaries. This avoids screwing up the entire company's communications AND gives you MUCH tighter controls over your data. A lot of the high-profile leakage we've seen has been because this hasn't been done, and the data was stored in an environment in which it should never, ever, have been allowed. For example -- laptops. I'd add developer machines of any types, and Android phones, as things which should be kept separate from such data. And in that production data environment, I wouldn't suggest relying on Websense, either. There's no need to support any kind of web surfing from inside the production environment. Even downloading software for your servers should be staged from a controlled repository. IMO, if you're using Websense, you're doing it wrong.

Websense can be evil and is definitely annoying but unfortunately it can be a necessity if a company needs to be PCI-compliant, etc. I've had similar problems with SDK updates failing via the HTTPS URL and have found that using the HTTP URL really will resolve the issue. I almost always have to launch the Android SDK and AVD Manager and check the box under Settings for "Force https://...sources to be fetched using http://..."; to get an SDK update to work. Surely there is a process at your company for requesting websense exceptions for genuine work purposes.

Websense is evil. I suggest getting a laptop, going down to the local coffee shop, updating the SDK, and then copying it to whatever system you want. I also suggest getting a job somewhere that doesn't use websense. Seriously. I would never take a job without a proper internet connection. I spent two days in the hospital, trying to get device drivers for my 3G card past Websense (so I could connect to anything useful) and was fortunately discharged before I could accomplish it. So I think taking Websense out of the picture is your best hope. I have no idea why the https: URL doesn't work, but I have never seen it work.

I can't use http because our companies' websense proxy/firewall block the http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository.xml URL. If i try to go to this URL using HTTPS via browser i can see the xml file. Why SDK Updater show this problem? Thank you very much.
