    You have been told that by Errto in a previous reply.

    Open a cmd window and do

    C:\> set http_proxy=http://proxy.abdn.ac.uk:8080/ C:\> set ftp_proxy=http://proxy.abdn.ac.uk:8080/ C:\> my_script.pl

    Note that the trailing slash (/) is mandatory.

    --shmem

    _($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
