Even if I'm using the same parameters of other applications (e.g. Firefox, Skype) the connection is mulfunctioning. Here below are some messages (e.g. the SZTAKI servers were up and running). Can you help me not to connect through a modem?

I'm running BOINC 5.4.9, configured for the use of a company HTTP Proxy. {snip} Can you help me not to connect through a modem? Read in the version details: If you use a proxy server, please hold off upgrading for now. We have a fix in the works for proxies that use NTLM authentication. So for now, uninstall 5.4.9 and go back to version 5.2.13, downloadable from here. ID: 5053 ·
