    Hi @ all

    at work we have a Proxy so that i have to export the http_proxy to download things. Now at home, if i try to use the Update manager, ubuntu tries to use the proxy but at home i didn't use any.

    How can i chance the Proxy in the whole System? If i only chance the settings in system>preferences>network Proxy i've the same problem that the updatemanager tries to get all over an Proxy.

    I don't see any HTTP_PROXY variable. As what user did you set that variable?
