Doesn't work :-(

I would like to use a Google geocoding service.

It works with my/your favorite browser (through proxy): 
<http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?sensor=true&address=grand\%27place+Brussels+Belgium> 
return a xml including location coordinates. My webbrowser ask me the 
proxy's login/passwd.

It works with wget through proxy (Cygwin installed, .wgetrc configured 
with proxy's login/passwd).

To use the google service with LibO, I have found the following webpage: 
<http://www.tuicool.com/articles/IN7zEb>. It works on a connection 
without proxy but not trough proxy.

I've tried the following macro in LibO (simplier) -> same result: works 
without proxy, not with proxy!

Sub Macro1
open "http://www.google.com"; for input as #1
line input #1, texte
close #1
print texte
End Sub

LibO want not to pass trough proxy!

Does it exist an another way to use webservices into LibO (pluggin, or 
something like that ?)
