Is there a known issue with using the HTTP Proxy settings ?

I'm trying to get throu a proxy, which requires a user/pass to be passed to it, but these aren't being passed.

The proxy log shows 'anonymous' as the user with no password given.
The xbmc debug log shows the proxy rejecting the web access.

ERROR: Server returned: 407 Proxy Authentication Required ( The ISA Server requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy filter is denied. )

Windows xbmc build: Kricker 10th Jan, Rev16989 (have also tried with several older rev. but same problem)
PC info: Dell Optiplex GX745, Intel Pentium D cpu 3ghz, 2gb ram, XP SP2.
Intel gfx Q965 Express chipset
Broadcomm netxtreme 57xx gigabit controller. Driver v9.52.0.0

Any advise appreciated.

XBMC only support the most basic of proxy standards, ....it does not support SOCKS 5 for example:
http://xbmc.org/trac/ticket/947

What type of proxy is it exacly? Which authentication protocol does it use? ???

Its a works proxy, so all I know is that its a 'Microsoft ISA Proxy' and its needs my nt domain logon inorder to authenticate the account. Its not SOCKS5.

The proxy logs show the xbmc request (ie from Weather) but user/pass isnt passed.

I can get weather without any problem through our office ISA proxy, but it doesn't look like any scripts or plugins can get outsite access.

no amount of fiddling would get throu. Seems the required authentication (user/pass) isn't being passed onto proxy.
