I am behind a proxy and while running wsdl2ruby on Windows XP, I am  
getting the following error. I believe this is because of proxy and I am  
not aware how to make wsdl2ruby to use proxy. Any enviroment variables  
or any settings? The wsdl url I have pasted here is a sample (invalid)  
and I got the below error with a valid url.

ruby C:\ruby\bin\wsdl2ruby.rb --wsdl  
[http://example.example.com/Service.wsdl](http://example.example.com/Service.wsdl)  
[http://example.example.com/Service.wsdl](http://example.example.com/Service.wsdl) --type client --force
