-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Settings... -> select "Use System Proxy Settings" -> Click Ok -> OK

if this does not work, then try this -> Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Settings... -> select "Auto-Detect Proxy Settings for this network" -> Click Ok -> OK

if this doesn't work either, then try this -> Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Settings... -> select "No Proxy" -> Click Ok -> OK

Check and tell if its working.
