As others have noted, Microsoft Proxy Server does support SOCKS. This feature 
must be enabled by the administrator. Having done that you can install the

runsocks apt

to use apt. I'm not sure if runsocks comes with the debian package. You might 
have to download the source and compile yourself if not.
