1. What happens when you try and browse ?
2. Can you check the proxy logs to see if maybe you're getting denied ?
3. Can you ping remote sites ?
4. Do you have the correct DNS and default gateway set ?
Check the basics, perhaps there's something you missed while setting it up....

Weird...links should have used the environment variable. Yet another reason I prefer lynx
