    I've tried everything I've found so far to do it, and I keep getting time out errors i.e not connecting.
    _______________
    System.getProperties().put("http.proxySet","true");
    System.getProperties().put("http.proxyHost","proxy1.ucd.ie");
    System.getProperties().put("http.proxyPort","8484");
    _______________
    being a typical example, setProperties() as well, for each of those.
    Am I putting it in the wrong place? I'm not putting it in the connecting class, but in the class which is controlling the whole "shebang".
    Cheers

    Could be a couple of things, I don't know how that proxy is set up so.. What sort of connection are you opening?

    1. The proxy does not support socket connections. It may only be a http (web) proxy. Socks is a proxy protocol that supports socket connections. Some http proxys can be made act like SOCKS proxys using software such as httport http://www.httport.com
    or
    Socks2http
    http://www.totalrc.net

    2. You may need to give the proxy a username and password.

    Good Luck
