Hi nav, A long shot - do you happen to have a proxy defined in your browser? It is possible to define a proxy for *all* request (including localhost) - this would have the same effect.

I have tried all of the methods you had suggested but to no avail. In all my years of Django development the localhost address has worked flawlessly. I have also tried with multiple Django projects and other Linux installations and the problem persists. This makes me think this is a DNS issue that may be due to a network related problem. In which case I will have to investigate. I will post once I find a work around or solution.
