Can't connect through proxy



Tor 0.1.0.10 under WinXP.  It was working fine until our network was
changed to send all traffic through a proxy.  I opened up torrc and
added lines for FacistFirewall and HttpProxy.  But here is the output
from notice.log:

Jun 24 13:55:56.551 [notice] Tried for 60 seconds to get a connection to
[scrubbed]:80. Giving up.

The output from debug.log starts here:

Jun 24 13:54:54.713 [debug] directory_initiate_command(): initiating
directory fetch
Jun 24 13:54:54.713 [debug] connection_connect(): Connecting to

and ends here:

This behaviour is consistant with every site I try to connect with.
Privoxy always puts up a 404 page.  Any suggestions on where to look for
the cause of this problem?  Is there something more I should be setting
in torrc?

OBTW, the SwitchProxy extension to Firefox really comes in handy during
sessions like this.

Thanks.
