I am missing something in your thinking...if TCP/IP is not configured, then nothing will work. It doesn't matter what website you try. Your debug log clearly shows you have some sort of configuration issue, not a usability issue.

What are the results of your testing and talk with the network admin about the firewall?

If you just want to try HTTPAPI internally, Scott and some others have written articles about creating servers to respond to web queries. The most basic use is just to retrieve a page from a web server (I think EXAMPLE1? is a PDF download). That would be very easy to replicate to contact any internal web server you have running. For a another simple example, you could use CGIDEV2 to create a program that will answer the web call. But if you can't get out of your network to the internet then these examples will be of limited usefulness unless you only want to talk to internal servers.

I found the same thing, awhile back.
the api.wunderground.com seems to be up and usually works, for me.

   I think TCP/IP has not been configured on my machine to communicate
   with webservicex.net

   and as you have mentioned webservicex.net is unreliable to use...so
   could you pls

   give me some reliable web service provider and I will configure that in
   my TCP/IP and try again

   Thanks,
