Soemthing wrong w/ urllib module or something.

[Daniel Larsson]

Are you using http proxying when you browse to the server? Have you tried to
do

$ curl http://DOMAINHERE/

If that works, connecting with a plain socket should work too. Otherwise, I
believe urllib has support for a proxying server, check the docs.
