Hello.

I'm facing an issue that I cannot get a rid of it. Let me explain:
I use for my app the AndroidHttpClient to make connection to a REST server. 
Everything works as expected except for a few of my users. At some point, 
my code throws an SocketTimeoutException. So I search all over the web and 
I found that it seems to be related to the DNS lookup. The solution to 
counter part is to use HttpURLConnection.

Now the funny part: On the emulator at home, everything is fine, impossible 
to reproduce the issue. But on the emulator at work (behind a transparent 
proxy) I got a really weird behavior. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. 
Event if I change the AndroidHttpClient to HttpURLConnection, I got the 
same result. Increasing the timeout doesn't solve the problem either, it 
just increase the time before reaching the SocketTimeoutException. 
Regarding to my research, i also tried to change the URL by the IP of the 
REST server but nothing changed.

So now I got any idea left, that's why I'm posting here. Is anyone already 
caught that?

Thanks in advance.
