Hi everyone,

Is there anyway to utilise Vista x64 Autopatcher if you are behind a Proxy firewall? For most programs that require access to ports that are restricted I am able to tunnel out using a service called "Your Freedom" and a proxifier called Proxycap, though Autopatcher (apup) is refusing to work via this system throwing up "Error Fetching Release List" as an error.

Is there a way to get around this or are there any plans on making access available to those of us who require authentication in order to use the internet?

I made a post about this a month ago in the thread for V1.0.4 in the Announcements subforum, though considering no-one replied, I figured that I would ask again here.


Edit: It does the same thing when its run as an administrator too.

No, APUP can only make direct connections at the moment.

Any updates on when we will see proxy-capable version of this program yet? :P
