This is a Java issue, I believe.  You can specify the proxy settings
through system properties like http.proxyHost and http.proxyPort.  For
example:

    http://www.ibiblio.org/javafaq/javafaq.html#proxy

For authentication, you'll need to implement an Authenticator and set
it as the default using Authenticator#setDefault.  See the
documentation of java.net.Authenticator for more information.
