Firewall connections -- how do I troubleshoot?

I am inside a firewall and have my TortoiseSVN 1.0.3 (Build 968,
UNICODE) on Win2k which works fine within the firewall to a Subversion
server within the firewall. I\'ve configured the client to point to
our proxy server and have the following problem:

I select a URL to browse, the tree for the URL I subbmitted is
displayed in a window, and when I click on the plus sign, \"+\", next
to the folder I wish browse, the client goes into a wait state
(hourglass) and then after several seconds the plus sign disappears and
nothing happens. I can then click \"OK\" which closes the window. No
entries under the folder are displayed.

I have tried the URL in a web browser and the contents of the
respository outside of the firewall displays properly, so I know the
http packets are going both ways.

Is there something with the TortoiseSVN client that I could monitor,
such as log files, to find out why the session connection is failing?

I have tried both with and without the SSH path (I do not think the
Subversion server outside the firewall is configured for SSH).
