One reminder tho. Knoppix is a 32 bit distro, you cannot install a 64
bit system of a 32bit chroot environment. You need to look for knoppix
64 on google.

Good luck.

From memory, ISA server is so intricately tied into Windows that you
need to authenticate to the Windows server using it's form of
authentication, which probably means using Samba. Therefore it is likely
to be very difficult to do so from the live CD - however Knoppix may
help, as I think it has Samba on it.

HTH, YMMV

 I've never been able to get links to work properly with an
 authenticated proxy, so I had an exception set up for my box. I don't
 know if that's an option for you, but it worked for me.  wget on the
 other hand works fine with an authenticated proxy, so perhaps you can
 try using that.

There are also around the internet these nice little programs that you can use 
to go through the authentication of the proxy (and do all other kinds of 
nifty things) and they pose internally as an unauthenticated proxy.
