Esto es lo que pone en su FAQ, a ver si te da alguna pista:

***
ProxyHost

- Why do I need a ProxyHost?

Due to security restrictions in Javascript, it is not possible to 
retrieve information from remote domains via an XMLHttpRequest.

Classes like WFS and GeoRSS use XMLHTTPRequest to get their data. If they 
are querying a remote server (anything other than the machine hosting 
your page), you must install a proxy script somewhere web accessible on 
that machine. See below for how to set up your own ProxyHost.

If the OpenLayers.ProxyHost variable is not set to a valid proxy host, 
requests are sent directly to the remote servers. In most cases, the 
result will be a security exception, although this exception often occurs 
silently.

- How do I set up a ProxyHost?

An example proxy host script is available here: trunk/openlayers/examples/
proxy.cgi

For the standard Apache configuration, you would place proxy.cgi into 
your /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ directory.

Once a proxy host script has been installed, you must then edit the 
OpenLayers.ProxyHost variable to match that URL.

Given the above standard Apache configuration:

    OpenLayers.ProxyHost = "/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url=";

If you have done something like this, you should be able to visit:

     http://YourDomain.example.com/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi

The resulting content at that page should be the openlayers.org website.

If you get a 404 error instead, either the proxy script is not in the 
right location, or your webserver is not configured correctly.
