Installaware and proxy support

Hi,

I'm having quite a bit of trouble with proxy support in install aware. The way my setup works is for that an upgrade we try to download a file using install aware script. Problem arises if a user running the upgrade is behind a proxy.

If the proxy uses anonymous and is configured in IE, then it works fine. But people behind proxy using domain credentials and proxy configured with BASIC authentication would not work.

Is there any way around this?

Bear in mind that i cannot hard code the proxy credentials, since i do not know under what environment it will be run under.

Currently, IA does not support proxy authentication, but it's something we'd like to implement in a future release.
