google earth - running under proxy


Hi,
I have downloaded the Google Earth Version for Linux.
I am using the net through a Proxy.
I get the following error when I try to run the Google earth and when it connects to google server.

--------------------------
Google earth detected an error while trying to authenticate
Please check the following
-your network connection
-your firewall settings
(are you blocking /usr/local/bin/google-earth/googleearth-bin?

Error-code 29

Have you set the environment variables HTTP_PROXY and http_proxy appropriately?
