Try to find a network testing or diagnostic tool for Win XP to find what real problem is.

If you know a good netwrok diagnositc tool or solution, please share the information.

Thanks your attention.

If you are behind a corporate firewall, or if your PC have a software firewall installed (besides the XP 'firewall'), those may be blocking connections.

[lyon819]

How do I know the firewall lock the access?

I already replyed the issue to IT department, but I am waiting for response for long time.

I just want to know what the issue is.

If you know any network testing tool, please let me know.

[BGmot]

It's not networking issue as all these links are broken. Network testing tool will not help you. I suppose something is terribly wrong with your set up.

[lyon819]

Could you give a hit what kind of set up is wrong?

1.I try to use another internet IP to do the same thing. Work well.

2.Using another PC and the same internet IP to do the same thing. Error is the same.

Obviously, the problem is the setting/firewall/protocol of the internet IP, whih has some problems.

The solution is at below.

1.using a specific proxy setting.

Eclipse menu/Window/preferences/General/Network connections/Activie provider:Manual, Check HTTP, 

Edit HTTP, put into a specific host and port, which can be provided by your IT department.

or

2.Control Panel/Java/NetWork Setting/Use proxy server, put into a specific host and port, which can be provided by your IT department. and check Bypass proxy server for local addresses.

or

Check Use proxy server for your LAN, put into a specific host and port, which can be provided by your IT department

You just need to choose one of the methods or more than one method.

The problem will Solved.
