Try switching off Zone Alarm…worked for me

Or

Switch off any developing or referral extensions…

Most of the time it's just a matter of disabling your firewall. Try that, it worked for me.

I had the same problem when I was using a proxy, so that might be it.

I use sunbelt personal firewall, and I always got that error, so I opened up Live HTTP headers, and it turns out that the firewall was sending its own referrers so that it could check the site. I turned it off and VOILA! all better
