Some applications and tools and even some parts of Sugar will use the
http_proxy environment variable if set, but don't use the Gnome (GConf) proxy

After changing the GConf proxy settings, Sugar needs to be restarted for the
http_proxy environment variable to be updated.

Hi,
can you give a few examples which ones are using which method? My fist
hit was wget using the env variable [1]. More light on that welcome.
