I removed your password in your post. Please don't tell us your password, some people will take it for granted and use it. I am just trying to spare you heck from a arsehole.

 

Now concerning the proxy thing...i believe there was problems such as yours that was fixed in a beta revision...so you may not be able to play on the stable on the server. :( Now don't take my word for it, so I hope someone can help you (because I don't know what the problem may be) and I am wrong. :wink1:

Your proxy just does not allow connection. The game can't connect server throught this proxy.

 

What you need is a support for CONNECT method for port 2000 (and probably 2001 for beta server). Usually such method is allowed only for port 443 for SSL support.

 

From getting 502 error, I assume your admin is using Microsoft ISA Proxy.

 

To fix this problem, your admin can execute the following vbs script on the server running proxy (not on your computer!):

set isa=CreateObject("FPC.Root")
set tprange=isa.Arrays.GetContainingArray.ArrayPolicy.WebProxy.TunnelPortRanges
set tmp=tprange.AddRange("UFO2000", 2000, 2001)
tprange.Save

 

This script allows the use of CONNECT method for ports 2000 and 2001. If you can't change proxy settings (security policy forbids it for example), you are out of luck, sorry.
