Unable to use irc behind http proxy

[mihunt]

Hi All
I am not able to connect to the irc.our network is using http proxy for connecting to internet.
i did all the network setting of irc but its giving me this error
Connecting to xx.xx.xx.xx (xx.xx.xx.xx) port 8128...
HTTP/1.0 403 ForbiddenProxy traversal failed.
Stopped previous connection attempt (pid=26988)

and on my proxy server port tunneling is block

i think its a realy a challenging problem
any geeks can help me out

I think you have to configure your proxy for irc

Internet: 8080 ->proxy -> 80
IRC : 8181 ->proxy -> 6667

or is the firewall blocking the irc ?
