RE: [WDSCI-L] Update not working through proxy.

["Samuel J Lennon" <lennon_s_j@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

  I've never been able to update from work because I can't get through the
  corporate firewall.    I believe it's because we run a Microsoft firewall
  and for some reason WDSc, or Eclipse, can handle it.  Consequently, I've
  been unable to install Softlandings free plugins.  I download the zip
  files for IBM updates and run the update process from my local drive--the
  last few updates have been very smooth this way, once you figure out which
  zip file to download.

   

  I believe IBM is aware of the Microsoft IIS problem, but can't or won't
  fix it.
