What kind of proxy firewall is it? With a raptor you ftp to the firewall, then use the username to identify the foreign host with a structure like this: username@foreignhost.com

The local proxy is squid which forward requests to a Microsoft proxy connected to internet.

perl has the ability to ftp. I think Clay has a GREAT example in this thread:
