I am connected to a proxy server for my university using Mac OS X (Snow Leopard). I am able to connect if I set Firefox's personal proxy settings however, if I don't set them but rather set OS X's system wide proxy settings Firefox will not acknowledge the new setting and won't connect. Is there a fix for this?

The settings here are set to 'Auto-detect proxy settings for this network'. This will work if I set the 'Automatic proxy configuration URL' in the settings but I'm not interested in setting this configuration whenever I change locations. Thanks.

FoxyProxy will do the job to a degree I suppose though it looks like I will need to manually activate the university proxy when I want to connect to it. AutoProxy looks a little more complicated than I feel is really needed. All I'm interested in doing is having Firefox obey the system wide network preferences I've set up with my OS. Thanks for the extensions though.
