I also tried by following the links in linux.il home page with my browser and 
got no response or got only the "root" listing (Parent Directory (Root 
Directory), mirrors, packages, pub, welcome.msg) without the ability to get 
into higher levels of the tree.
I am aware to the fact that my private IP (172.something) + the proxy server 
are looking as if I am trying to fake my real IP (Did I got it correctly?). 
However I never had any problems when I was pointing my browser to ftp sites, 
although I have not tried that many ftp sites.
