Note: I'm answering you on the proxytools-users list so I don't need to 
retype this same info for everyone separately. This reply is also sent 
directly to you so you know to look there for the replies to the other 
messages you sent.

1) show me the exact command line you used. You probably got it wrong.
2) please use the current cvs version of findProxy.pl. I can't see 
the line where this warning occurred, so I can't see if it's worth 
worrying about or not.
3) i'm not supporting the findProxy live tests any more. The program 
is only for extracting the proxy strings from web pages, files, 
email, etc. See the statProxy tests (d for connection, 0 for basic 
proxy functionality, 14 for the censoring test, 13 for anonymity 
etc.), and -C for testing via CONNECT tunneling proxies. These 
cover all of findProxy's original test functionality, I think.

Your command line is wrong. Read the examples when you type 
perl statProxy.pl -h

Your command line needs (at least):
-t all
-l extract.out

or, if you really wanted to just test connectability (very fast), 
use 

-t d

and, if these really are standard port proxies, you can't test them 
directly from inside the UAE. The port is blocked, right?
You will need to use statProxy's CONNECT tunnel testing mode:
-C 195.229.240.67:8080
