Well, with this 'error' message my inclination is to suggest that you find out more about the proxy which you are connecting through as it would seem that this is where the problem lies. What software is running the proxy? Is it a HTTP or a SOCKS proxy? Is there any authentication required for access? If you don't know the answers to these questions, it might be worth sounding out your network administrator to get an idea as to how the proxy is set up.

Good luck.
