Nobody knows? But why?

The way I have used proxies through python is either by doing:

u = urllib.URLOpener({"http" : 'http://209.242.141.249:8080/'})

another way is setting the environment variable http_proxy to
http://209.242.141.249:8080/ and firing up URLOpener. Without params
it sniffs the environment.

I haven't looked into urllib2.

p.s. Oops, I noticed I wrote wrong in the original article, so I am
trying to supersede it ;-)
