Can't convert from azw (DRMed) to anything

Hi, last sunday I bought an ebook on Amazon.it, the last one by Terry Brooks and I'm reading it on my new PW.
The problem is that I would like to have it on my Glo HD too, so I need to convert it in KEPUB or in EPUB.
I'm using Calibre with DeDRM plugin (6.3.4a) and I have Kindle for Windows (logged in with my Amazon account) in my laptop which can read the downloaded ebook.
When I import in Calibre the azw file under C:\Users\*username*\Documents\My Kindle Content everything goes right (it should be DeDRMed) but when I simply try to open it Calibre returns "This book is locked by DRM. To learn more...".
Same thing when I try to convert it.
Where did I go wrong? The ebook should be DeDRMed in the moment I import it in Calibre.
Here follows the Calibre log:

Problem solved all by myself after a week of attempts.
I'm behind a proxy and I'm not using Internet Explorer.
All that I had to do was to set the proxy under IE, open the book with Kindle for PC and then all worked, Calibre was able to DeDRM it.
Thanks anyway!

NB Calibre does NOT remove DRM from ebooks. You may have installed a third-party plugin that removes DRM, but calibre didn't do it. It is important that this distinction should be made perfectly clear, as otherwise Kovid may have problems from ill-informed lawyers.

NB #2: Good thing you were able to figure out the third-party DeDRM plugin yourself because we can't provide detailed help here. All we can tell you is to go ask Apprentice Alf on his blog. https://apprenticealf.wordpress.com/...ooks/#comments
