Summary: Privoxy blocks download of Chrome extensions

Initial Comment:
When I click on the "Add to Chrome" button it says "Installing..." forever.  It works if I turn off the proxy settings.

I'm running on Windows XP SP3.

You're absolutely right.  That data came in at the time of my mouse click
but it wasn't actually from the site.  I repeated the process and the log
file showed nothing.  Are there more debugging options available?  

If not then I believe that it might be some bug with Chrome pertaining to
proxy server support or a bug with the Chrome Store in downloading via 
proxy server.  Unfortunately Google has lousy bug fixing/support so I don't
even know where to start.  Sigh.

Thanks, but unfortunately that information is insufficient as it's unclear
where the requests are coming from.

The page doesn't seem to contain a direct link to fls.doubleclick.net.

The log file is attached.  It only has the information after clicking the
"Install" button so you shouldn't have to sift through it too much.  

My version of Chrome is the latest release build: 13.0.782.215 m
