the following guide was written by dkdk_it (Domenico), and posted at the italian forum for autopatcher, in this topic. also it may have some use for some users that are behind an proxy, i'm doing an translation for his guide. if yours really wanna do this, do by your own will and risk.
Let us know if it works or not.

2nd Add / Update the following lines to your hosts file (<Windows> / system32/drivers/etc/hosts):
Copy and paste, consists of three lines not five (each new line starts with 127.0.0.1)
These lines redirect AutoPatcher requests through the proxy (if not you need you can remove them at the end)
3rd Desproxy start from the command line as described below, substituting the appropriate variables
