I solved the problem by myself, by setting the variable "SET
http_proxy="some.proxy:8080" in the autoexec.bat file. I guess that you
solve it the same way in unix by export http_proxy="some.proxy:8080" etc etc
;-)

But thanks for you help anyway! ;-)

I don't know of any Python libraries that parse out an autoproxy.pac - I had
a similar issue at my last contract, where an off-the-shelf software package
couldn't read the company's (complicated/convoluted) autoproxy.pac.

But you know, its just javascript.  Isn't there a javascript module for
Python?  The autoproxy.pac function is pretty simple, seems to me you could
just call that function and get the info to use, and pass that to urllib.

You can find more info on autoproxy.pac syntax at Netscape's site, or on
MSDN.microsoft.com.

Good luck!

See:
http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/lib/module-urllib.html
(this is the in-development documentation, but looking at the urllib
code, I think it's accurate for Python 2.1 -- and the current
documentation isn't as good)

Also see the documentation for urllib2
