proxy servers don't like you to go straight to the internet.
you get an error something like:
Invoke-WebRequest :
This Page Cannot Be Displayed
Authentication is required to access the Internet using this system. A valid user ID and password must be entered when prompted.
so you need to give this Powershell Incantation
You can guess from this that you can actually set proxy credentials with this. But I haven't worked that out yet.
