Hi Sinan,
I assume you saw this post concerning the http.proxy environment variables:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/support/help/MailArchives/idv/msg00493.html

When you say your proxy requires authentication how does it authenticate a 
request?
If it returns an http authentication request we might not be set up to handle 
that.
