silly one but i assume you already have "allow_url_fopen=On" in php.ini? (it should tell you anyway, that this is not set, plus the error below)
works for me in 4.3.2/winxp pro/apache 1.3.28. I guess if you don't *need* apache 2, don't do it. another test might be to fopen and read a socket via http to make sure your connection (or I should say apache's service logon user's connection) to the aforementioned ip/host is ok.
