I am not a Windows user, but on UNIX systems the format of http_proxy and 
https_proxy is:

   http://proxyname:3128/

being the proxy hostname and port number respectively. You're saying:

   proxyname:8080

instead. (Note, https_proxy _also_ starts with "http:", not "https:" because 
the communication with the proxy is HTTP.)

Try the longer form.  And ensure you have the port number right; proxies do not 
normally listen on port 80; they tend to listen on port 3128 or 8080.
