Localhost and 127.0.0.1 or Computer name

I tried to open a web application in one of my computer
and get:

unable to create web project "webapplication1" proxy error
(connect refused)

location : c:\inetpub\wwwroot\WebApplication1

The IIS is running.

I find I cannot open any page with
localhost/.../default.htm

If I use computer name or 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost
the page will open.

If anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks

Try:

Cannot find "localhost":
Control Panel -> Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN Settings ->
Uncheck everything.
