Localhost - Bypass proxy server
Sigh. I forgot that my IE was configured with a proxy server. I kept receiving an error in my IE whenever I tried to access http://localhost. I kept wonder why.
// Error //
ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://localhost/
The following error was encountered:
Connection Failed
The system returned:
(111) Connection refusedThe remote host or network may be down. Please try the request again.

Why? Why?
Finally I approached my team lead for help. He had called upon my other senior colleague. Actually inside the IE you have to configure like this
Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections -> Lan Settings -> Enabled Bypass proxy server for local address.
Then this will solve the issue. :)
I am really a noobie to web.
