I don't know about proxies sorry so I can't direct you.

You could try force IP: Force IP instructions & sample image but still might not help.

A simple test you can do is go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ It should say Test page was a success. If not, then they are blocking many ports. If a success then they might be using other techniques.
