This might be a DNS problem, can you ping plain IP addresses (try 
216.239.59.147 which is one of google.com's).

Proxy server settings tend to be app specific. For example I use the Opera 
web browser and it's proxy settings can be located under 
tools/preferences/network. So check your various internet app's 
documentation.

You seem a little confused about your network setup, are you running a proxy 
server on your slack box for the WinXP machines or are you using NAT?
