Proxy issues

I using Win 7 64bit and VPN to connect into a corporate network. I cannot get beyond the same error mentioned above about proxy authentication required. I am computer literate and am frustrated over this.

Given how widespread is the use of Calibre, especially with the ever increasing numbers of Kindles around, Calibre has become a mainstream application. To not have a configurable proxy setting raises a serious question as to why?

I would also cite the number of people that use it at work (or try to) all my colleagues are equally as frustrated as I am.

So I'd like to request that the inclusion of a configurable proxy setting be regarded with a different priority than it has in the past.

Seriously, for an application with this level of sophistication and functionality, I can't find anything even remotely as useful anywhere! it is alone in its class. For it to fail to function (easily) in a corporate environment is missing out on a huge following.

Beyond that I am humbly grateful for Calibre as it is.

Kudos to you
