Your code isn't doing an LWP::Simple request. It's doing its
request through LWP::UserAgent (LWP::Simple will use LWP::UserAgent itself as well). Do one to three things:
- Forget about LWP::Simple. You seem to cope with LWP::UserAgent fine.
- Use LWP::Simple, and have it export $ua. Set up the proxy through $au, as in your code (But the method above is just as easy).
- Either use LWP::UserAgent or LWP::Simple as described above, and setup the proxy using environment variables and a call to $au -> env_proxy.
Futher note that the second argument of the proxy method must be the proxy you are using - not the site you want to reach via a proxy.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
