[amphetadesk-discuss] it is not working

[Jeff H. <jef...@pa...>]

The Amhp-desk windows says
Downloading amphetadeskdocumenta.xml - local copy doesn't exist.

Downloading lockergnome.xml - local copy doesn't exist.

which then opens IE which shows me the URL http://127.0.0.1:8888/index.html
and the page appears. BUT the messages are these:
There was an error loading this channel, as AmphetaDesk could not download
any data to parse. AmphetaDesk will keep trying in the future but the site
or channel may be dead (on the other hand, it could just be having
connectivity issues). If all the channels have failed to download, then you
may be using a proxy server (which you can set under the 'My Settings'
page), or firewall/security software which needs to be configured to allow
AmphetaDesk access to the Internet.
Which is not good.

My connection is this: Cable modem to SMC 7004ABR firewall/router/hub which
is also my localnet DHCP server. My ISPs proxy info is a script at
http://pac.pandora.be:8080/ and the actual proxy is proxy.pandora.be:8080. I
have used both of these in the proxy field in my settings with no good
effect. I have no problem getting Internet phone, ICQ, MSN etc etc through
this setup .. only the ampheta feeds are not happening.

Anyone have a clue about what I can check on next?
