Unable to pull bzr.dev

[dhruva]

Hello,
 I found out the problem area. It is nothing related to bzr code and apologies for misleading the folks here. I had installed privoxy (a proxy server to filter ads) and modified "Internet Options" in IE to use it as a proxy server. I removed privoxy as I did not need it. Since I use FireFox mostly, I did not go and revert the "Internet Options" to connect to internet directly. Now, bzr uses the IE setting to establish the connection and I was clueless. I always assumed that it had its own setting somewhere to specify the proxy if required! Once I set IE to connect to internet directly, bzr started working!
 IMHO, I feel we should use a bzr specific setting for proxies and not depend on browser based setting.
