You're going through a proxy server. Since fproxy isn't accessible
from the rest of the net your proxy server can't figure out what to do
with the address.

You have to disable proxying for the localhost address. You can do
this by adding localhost to the list of domains to connect to
directly in your browsers setup.

Anyone know the details of how to do this?
