a more comprehensive enhancement to your configuration could be to keep your
proxy server; configure your users to point to the proxy server for internet
access and point the proxy server only to the firewall which would face the
internet.
another missing piece is how, rather where, you want to authenticate your
users, at the proxy, at the firewall, at an NT SAM, there are others also.
