Here's what happens when I try to selfupdate:

[ou240062:~] jason% sudo fink selfupdate
Password:
curl -L -s -S -O http://fink.sourceforge.net/LATEST-FINK
curl: (5) Couldn't resolve proxy 'busja680'
### curl failed, exit code 5
Downloading the file "LATEST-FINK" failed.

(1)  Give up
(2)  Retry

How do you want to proceed? [2]

I've tried using the curl command on its own, and the same thing happens.  
If I try wget, I get "command not found", so I guess I don't have wget 
installed...

The only thing I can think of is curl doesn't support authenticated proxies.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Jason
