Comment:

 Could you install my plugin 'Core
 Control'(http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/core-control/), Activate it,
 Then switch over to the Core Control page (Under settings i believe)

 Activate the HTTP module, Save changes, Then switch to the HTTP tab along
 the top of the page.

 Could you copy everything off that page and paste it here? or email it to
 me: wordpress @ dd32.id.au

 Once you've done that, You can try disabling the current transport in use,
 to force it to switch to the next transport in the list.

 This is the reason the HTTP API was written, Since every host ends up
 having a different support forexternal requests, yours likes Curl, MANY
 others do not, Many work with fsockopen(), many do not, some work with the
 HTTP Extension, most do not have it.. etc.
