[Bug 298009] Re: Proxy settings not respected when image is dragged to desktop

[turk45529a]

Still an issue for me as well - identical behaviour with 9.04 and
Firefox 3.0.12 (though my dialogues are a bit different).

Dragging links and images from inside the proxy works perfectly. I can
drag them to the desktop with no problem. Outside the proxy, If I drag
an image, I get:

Error while copying.
There was an error getting information about "example.gif".
HTTP Error: Cannot resolve hostname

However I notice that if I drag a URL into the terminal, I do indeed get
the proper URL on the command line. So is this a Firefox issue or an
Ubuntu issue? When I watch traffic to my proxy, I see my system trying
to get something when I drag a URL or image, though I can not tell what.
