I am also having issues with wget behind a proxy. Trying to download any address that requires proxy authorization fails with the following message:

"failed: Connection timed out."

Also it seems to be trying to connect using port 80. Shouldn't it be using the port specified in the proxy setting? I have the proxy configured correctly in the Gnome Network Proxy Preferences and everything else that needs proxy access works fine, with the exception of apt-get. It's error message is:

"407 Proxy Authentication Required"
