Copy a settings.xml to the C:/Documents and Settings/username/.m2 directory, and modify the settings.xml file to add an http proxy:

 

<settings>
	<proxies>
	
		<proxy>
		<id>optional</id>
		<active>true</active>
		<protocol>http</protocol>
		<username>myname</username>
		<password>mypassword</password>
		<host>172.18.5.100</host>
		<port>80</port>
		<nonProxyHosts>localhost|127.0.0.1|172.18.*.*|172.16.*.*</nonProxyHosts>
		</proxy>
	
	</proxies>
</settings>

 Then, just restart.
