But it semms like you are using a non-working proxy (by a configuration
file or a environement variable or some transparent preloading of socks
libraries or something like that)

one thing that you could try is: replace in sources.list
security.debian.org with (one of) its ip. I have just checked the
existence of
http://130.89.175.54/dists/etch/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz
One can try a more verbose apt-get command hoping for more details in
the error message
The last idea could be
strace -f -o /tmp/apt-get.log apt-get update
