Try turning your antivirus software off.

If its on it may be interefering.
it may not be.
But the only way to know is to turn it off and see. I use the software provided by my cable company, Fsecure... if your using windows firewall turn it off and you can turn it back on after.. unfortunatly i dont know how to guide you through sorting your antivirus.. but once you disable it, it will allow all traffic past and if it does then you know you need to tweak your antivirus/firewall settings to allow it past.
That has to be the hardest thing though. Once its sorted it is not as hard as it seems but the frustration level is what kills you .


good luck

Jack

Glad it worked out. Sometimes the solution is the simplest of things. It happens.
Good luck And thanks for the update

Ah, I see the problem. The home webcam server I was trying to access earlier requires password authentication, which apparently the Kobo browser does not support. In that case it just returns to the previous page with no indication as to what's wrong. I assumed that it didn't support appending the non-standard port number to the address. But I tried that same port number with the Calibre server, and it does work. So, wrong assumption about the nature of the problem. My bad.
Did you try supplying the username and password as part of the URL?

I.e. http://username:password@www.anywher...e/anyscript.pl

Yup, that's been in the URL syntax since day one. See http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt for the specifications, section 3.1 explains the username and password.

Some browsers don't let you do it for security reasons. I think IE took it out a few versions ago. But it can be quite handy.
