Parents Don't inherit the environment of their children.
ENV variables set in an aterm are not visible in other aterms or in programs launched from the menus.
Create a file /etc/profile.d/proxy.sh that contains your export.
Then exit to prompt mode, logout, and log back in.

Make sure you add 'etc/profile.d/proxy.sh' to your /opt/.filetool.lst and do a backup.
