Where are you located? If your in the US, instructions are below, otherwise you might need a UK VPN or one for your country.
I use the below built into Ubuntu, no third party software required but note that a VPN is not the same as a proxy though it will get around the blocking. If you wish to use a proxy still, there are plenty of web proxies available ...

Do you configured SVN to use the proxy?
/home/you/.subversion/servers
and put
http-proxy-host = proxy.mydomain
http-proxy-port = 3128
http-proxy-username = user
http-proxy-password = pass
For your console, export the environement variable:
export http_proxy=http://DOMAIN\USERNAME:PASSWORD@SERVER:PORT/
Hope this help.

After starting from scratch (purging & re-installing), I finally discovered the problem.
The changes to squid-deb-proxy.conf (which I thought enabled mirrors) were the culprits.
I don't understand the comments in the file, like: "# uncomment the third and fouth line to permit any unlisted domain". There are only two lines underneath that comment, and ...

I have the same problem, also in 13.04 - 64 bit.
In Ubuntu 12.10 - 64 bits, on the same machine, it worked.
Anyway, until the problem is solved, you can manually edit its conf file to change proxy parameters for Synaptic.
The file is /root/.synaptic/synaptic.conf and you can specify the user and password on the httpProxyUser and
httpProxyPass lines

Yes, apt- catcher is an apt-proxy. It has the ability to catch the packages you download locally each time an update is made in your system.

Are you sure that the atime on your files is properly kept? Many filesystems use mounted nowadays with noatime or relatime options to reduce the amount to writes to the disk.
Those options influence how and how often the atime stat field is written.

I believe is was a bug in 12.10 when dealing with proxy servers... I upgraded to 13.04 and didn't have a problem.
Also, there was still the problem with thunderbird after upgrading, but switching the settings within thunderbird to use "no proxy" it worked out fine.

OK, I got the answer from
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/KernelGitGuide
I can use the http protocol to do clone.
git clone http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git-repos/ubuntu/ubuntu-precise.git/

there is a graphical tool called UbProxy, that sets the whole systema proxy, via a graphical interface (GUI).
The only problem for me, was I have to log out my user and log in again to load the config.
Is very simple to use.

I have another solution for you , download tor from third party websites like :
http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Proxy/Tor-Browser-Bundle-2845.shtml
extract the .tar.gz into your home folder right click start tor and set execute as program . set necessary permissions and run the program . and it will work alright.

So seems that my first option did not work here's option 2:
As @Mik mentioned It's better to use tor browser bundle as the version of tor in the repos is very old.
So what you want to do is:
Download Tor Brownser Bundle from here (If asked open with or save as choose save as.) --> Tor Browser Bundle
When your download is complete open the location where ...

You basically need to submit that form (the one mentioned in the screenshot in the comment section of question) again and again every hour to the proxy server.
So basically you are looking at hitting a particular URL automatically. This is same as "generating load" on the server at the rate of 1 link per hour.
Basic load generation softwares like jmeter ...

Find the path to the folder where the start-tor-browser is, and type cd /path/to/folder, then ./start-tor-browser.

I had the exact problem as yours.
I found this document extremely useful. Just follow all steps closely.
Even though it pertains to earlier version of Ubuntu, it works on my 13.04.

I assume they are using a transparent proxy, that is one you don't normally see at all.
You can get to the authentication page again by opening a new tab/window in your browser and try to connect to any web server from there. After reauthenticating you can proceed as usual.

Give a right click at that start-tor-browser file and change at permissions as Execute the file as program and then try again .

If your ISP needs a proxy to connect you to the internet, then why should you need another proxy !! You should be able to get to the internet via your ISP's proxy.
I believe the question is about an invalid scenario.

Well, answer to this question is quite surprising, and I can't explain why the following solution works, but as a matter of fact it does work!
You need to do nothing in the config files, and no command line arguments to the eclipse command either (while starting eclipse).
All that needs to be done is this: set proxy to manual mode, and set only HTTP and ...

I discovered answer to this question completely by chance.
The trick is to keep only HTTP and HTTPS proxy values in "manual" settings. Keep the SOCKS proxy empty.
As soon as we set these settings, eclipse successfully fetches the list of plugins, and successfully installs plugins too!!

You are setting proxy for firefox, which is read ONLY BY FIREFOX, and not by ubuntu apps.
Ubuntu refers to system proxy settings, which can be set via System Settings > Network > Network Proxy.
Apt refers to its own proxy settings from a file. This link provides the solution (refer to fossfreedom's answer).

The idea of having a command like gsettings is that it doesn't matter where or how the settings are stored. Even if the actual location should change, gsettings will tell you the values. So have your program do something like
gsettings get org.gnome.system.proxy mode
and you're fine.

To connect to remote SSH Server via HTTP proxy, you need to install connect-proxy
Then edit your ~/.ssh/config file like this => ~/.ssh/config
## Outside of the firewall, with HTTPS proxy
## Package connect-proxy is required.
# VPS
Host server-name
ProxyCommand connect -H proxy.company.com:80 %h %p
ServerAliveInterval 20

If your proxy is based on SOCKS, then see this question:
See this question: Is there any utility like `Proxifier` for Ubuntu?
If it is HTTP, you're out of luck. HTTP proxying does not support arbitrary applications, because HTTP proxying is transparent to clients, but requires server support (namely, the HTTP protocol which supports proxying inherently).

You seem to have a proxy configured, which wget is attempting to connect through, but which is not available, and so the web server running on that address, is returning an HTTP 503 error response. You should contact the admin of that site, or disable the use of a proxy.
