Selenium doesn't load the Firefox user configuration, but a default and clean 
one.
To customize a configuration, you need create a profile :
Run "firefox -p" and create the profile "Selenium" for example, launch it and 
configure your proxy.

Then to use it in a script:
Dim driver As New SeleniumWrapper.WebDriver
driver.setProfile "Selenium"
driver.start "firefox", "http://www.google.com"
...
