check out this ini value:

allow_url_fopen

its set to false for some versions of PHP.

another thing, do a sanity check to make sure it works at all... like this:

$fp = fopen ("c:\\temp\\test.txt", "r");

also note, you cant use include() or require() with remote files on windows.

also note, if this is a heavily trafficked site (like weather.com, 
google, or Yahoo), the response might not be html, it might actually be 
gzipped html, which fopen() isn't smart enough to handle.  Do a test 
with a known site.

last resort, make sure that the service you are running PHP as is a 
service that has access to the network.  For example, the default 
install of Apache and IIS probably runs as the Local User, you might 
need to run it as a domain user, such as yourself.  You should be able 
to change this in the services control panel... I dont know if this 
matters at all, but you might as well try.
