Start with just
<settings>
<proxies>
<proxy>
<id>optional</id>
<active>true</active>
<protocol>http</protocol>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>8080</port>
</proxy>
</proxies>
</settings>
Then see about adding in the rest of the stuff you need
BTW, you have www.google.com as a non-proxy host... why just google?
