I don’t know what type of proxy server the service provider is using.
However, when I key it in manually into Avast (proxy.starhub.net.sg:8080), the update works.
When I set it to automatically use IE’s settings, and I press the “Test Connection” button, it says it is ok. But upon updating, it times out and an error message saying that “…xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx… server is down…” where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is an IP address of Avast’s server.
No authorisation required.
