sorry, the timeout induced me to think about proxy connection
(evident ....). i found this example and worked fine!
        import httplib, getpass, base64

	print "Proxy Authentication Required:"
	user = raw_input("Username: ")
	passwd = getpass.getpass()
	auth = base64.encodestring(user + ":" + passwd)

	proxy_domain = "proxy.toto.com"
	proxy_port = 8000

	host = "www.tata.com"
	url = "/"

	h = httplib.HTTPConnection(proxy_domain, proxy_port)
	h.putrequest('GET', "http://%s%s"%(host,url))
	h.putheader('Host', host)
	h.putheader('Proxy-Authorization', '''Basic %s''' % auth)
	h.endheaders()
	r = h.getresponse()
	z = r.read()

	print z

sorry by disturb ....
