Using Foobar for internet playlists with a proxy

  I tried to install Foobar on my work computer in order to play online files (usually with M3U playlists). 

Well, it doesn't connect, and I realized that Foobar needs to be configured to go through the corporate firewall with a proxy server.  Try as I may I could not find these settings in the preferences.

Is there a way to do this?

what should I do if my proxy requires authorization?

Format is the same for URLs, although the http:// is not required.

[user[:password]@]host[:port]

Brackets, as in Tagz and possibly several forms of documentation, indicate regions of optional parameters.

Currently, both standard HTTP reader and my own reader only support Basic authentication. I will add Digest to mine in the near future, for a greater measure of security or something. Oh, and maybe NTLM if I'm bored, for those lame MS Proxy servers which won't accept standard authentication protocols.
