Hi, The problem is resolved.
I just added an entry to my hosts file and it worked.

Thanks all for all the help.

have you done that on linux or windows? i am on windows and it didn't work for me. on linux I can make it work by modifying /etc/hosts but no way in windows. I use Firefox and I have "No proxy"
