As everyone at your company is going to run into this problem, what you
should do is set up a corporate repository manager where you handle this.
Then configure the repo manager to proxy any Internet repository you need.
All Maven clients/users then don't have to worry about your magic web proxy
issues, but just configure Maven to use your internal repository manager
instead. What you've gained in the process is a much stable and faster
corporate Maven setup. Which you can build on in the future with, for
instance, internal (corporate) repos for your own artifacts.
