in which case you cannot use WLM at work.

WLM takes its proxy settings from Internet Explorer and if those settings don't allow you to use WLM then you're stuck :P

RE: Struggling with proxy settings on live
the corperate firewall should block all the ports required for wlm anyway
you could do it with some IP magic and openSSH but it's too complicated for this thread

wlm uses the proxy settings from IE it's pretty straight foward
