Auto-detect usually only works inside a private network with Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) servers, so that's not going to work for you.

Ask your ISP what your proxy settings should be, but if you are using the same pc to post here it is likely you don't need any proxy settings at all.

A more likely problem is that you are behind a firewall and it is blocking the ports or programs required for MSN and your antivirus update.
