If you can not ping external sites, I'm afraid, you have a hard
configured firewall from your departments LAN.IT.

This let me assume, you can only surf via proxy?

If you know that you use proxy with your webserver, than must setup
proxy also in coLinux. Type this on linux prompt, with your personal
settings shurely:
  export http_proxy=http://username:password@proxyserver.net:port/
  export ftp_proxy=http://username:password@proxyserver.netport/

After this proxy setup, "wget google.com" and apt-get should work.

More hints about apt-get setup:
