It is not the credential is wrong but through the proxy the credential are not working. If I disable the anonymity everything is running well. What might be the problem ? Here is the configuration which I am using for anonymity.

Think about that for a while please.

   An "anonymous" proxy is failing to send your identity information
(aka login) to a third party website.

To me that seems to be what you asked for.

Though I advise you that the "anonymous" config you are using is nowhere
close to actual anonymity. User-Agent, Cookie, Authorization,
WWW-Authorization, Accept-Language and Accept-Charset can all uniquely
identify you.

As to your problem, its possible they are using one of the newer HTTP
headers. The standards are changing all the time. We get asked to
register new headers a few times a year to keep up and 2.7 is *very* old
now.
