I personally am not behind a proxy and if a browser (using the default 
http-port 8080) can get to some document, why shouldn't a Java application 
(using the same protocol and port) be able to get there. There is no way 
in the http protocol that the server can identify what type of application 
the client is or what it wants to do with the requested document (i.e. 
display it in a browser window or parse it as XML or whatever).

Glad to be able to give some knowledge back to you, Michael,
