User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; ru-RU; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041104 Firefox/1.0RC2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; ru-RU; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041104 Firefox/1.0RC2

I was trying to update some extensions after browser start. All of them failed.
Our network uses corporate proxy server with authentification to get to the
internet.
Before I open any page (and proxy log on dialog appears) I'm unable to update my
extensions. Proxy log on dialog is not shown.
After I open a page and log on to proxy, I'm able to update extensions.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up a proxy server with authentification.
2. Open browser.
3. Try update extensions.

Actual Results:  
Extension update will fail.

Expected Results:  
Proxy log dialog should be shown. Then extension should be checked for updates.
