I think the update service uses cURL, which can take its proxy from the environment. So for XP:
Start > Control Panel > System
Select the 'Advanced' tab.
Select 'Environment Variables'
Add a new environment variable with your proxy settings:
Variable name: http_proxy
Variable value: http://myproxy.com:3128
In the value bit, rembember to include the http:// and not to put a / after the port number.
I get an XML error when I've done this, but I think that may be another issue entirely :-(
Kind regards,

Is there a way to eventually set proxy info in order to reach the live update server?
