Connect via Proxy not working for apt-get update

I run through the setup. I get to the proxy section. I set "anonymous proxy". I enter the proxy name and port (I've also tried the IP address and port).

After config has finished I try "apt-get update".

I get:
syntax error /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00proxy:4: Extra junk at end of the file

This is my 00proxy file (where x relates to IP address):

Acquire::http::Proxy http://x.x.x.x:8080/
Acquire::https::Proxy http://x.x.x.x:8080/
Acquire::ftp::Proxy http://x.x.x.x:8080/

Can someone provide some assistance with getting Eve to work with a proxy?

thanks!

resolved - issue was to do with upstream ACL!
