Thanks heaps Tomaz - that worked perfectly. 8-)<BR>
<BR>
I edited my /etc/wgetrc file and added the lines <BR>
<BR>
http_proxy = <A HREF="http://192.168.0.50:3128/">http://[my-proxy-name]:[my-proxy-port]/</A><BR>
ftp_proxy = <A HREF="http://192.168.0.50:3128/">http://[my-proxy-name]:[my-proxy-port]/</A><BR>
<BR>
and then re-ran apt-get install and it all worked without a hitch. 8-)<BR>
