The obvious next question is, is this port actually setup as a proxied port on the server? With a proxy server, you generally have to tell it each and every port to pass out.

Other questions:

Does the server “reply” on another port? Ie, ICQ contacts the server on port 4000UDP, but gets replies via dynamically assigned TCP ports. If you just opened 4000 for outgoing, you’ll never “hear” from the server.

Does the server respond in some way dynamically? Most proxy server software can’t handle it if you can’t give it a specific port to listen to for return communication.

It looks like there might also be some kind of “permissioning” on the proxy, do you have permission to use that port? Are you sure? 🙂

Can you connect directly to the server from the proxy server (thus, bypassing the proxy?)

If the site you’re going to uses MS authentication, then you also need ports 139, 140, and 141 open to pass the authentication. This MAY not work that simply, depending on yourproxy.

Well, that
