hi,
I'm using the wikibots regulary, but sometimes I am behind a proxy-server, and then the bot won't work... Is there a way to get it working also behind the proxy?? Is this function already implemented?

I have had complaints about that before, but I have no idea how to resolve it, sorry.

urllib.py gets the environment variables XXXX_proxy and uses those. For us, this would mean that setting http_proxy in the environment to something like http://proxy.host.domain:80/ should make the bot go through that proxy. I guess this works the same on Windows systems as it does on unix, but I have never tried it.
