Description

I am trying to connect a URL http://renderv3.mappoint.net/render-30/RenderService.asmx which needs WWW-Authenticate(uses Digest Authentication). Also this should go via a Proxy(uses Basic Authentication). This returns HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request [Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0, Date: Tue, 08 Mar 2011 13:38:43 GMT, X-Cache: MISS from proxy-server8-int1, Connection: close]....

When the request to this URL is sent directly(i.e., not going via Proxy), works perfectly.

Also when I tried with another HTTPClient from Innovation.ch, this works. So I doubt if there will be any trouble caused due to the proxy server.
