For everyone asking how to apply fixes etc. I'll try my best to explain this.
The original developer Bluecop hasn't been around for a while, therefore freecable isn't being updated for site changes. The git hub is maintained by Bluecop and hasn't been updated.
A few of us are doing our own fixes, and are posting the patches here.
Moneymaker has kindly grouped these fixes together here.

He is also working on a better solution, but I believe this isn't finished.
As for how to apply the fixes, in short find the original file and replace it.
The path will be something like .\XBMC\addons\plugin.video.free.cable\resources\lib
depending on what os.
Current fixes for
abc (some content)
cbs.py
history.py
lifetime.py
pbs.py
pbskids.py
spike.py
syfy.py
thecw.py
usa.py
As far as I know these should all work with a proxy (I just checked CBS works).
NBC works for me with no fixes.
If anyone is finding otherwise it would be useful to post a log file.
As posted above fox won't work because of DRM.
Cartoon Network, TBS and adult swim are dropping the stream after about a minute. Suspect this is something to do with the swfUrl, but difficult to investigate this because I can't watch eps on the networks' websites.
