Plenty of info on the net actually!

Try this first.
Winsock Fix -
1. Click on Start button.
2. Type cmd in the Start Search text box.
3. Right click on cmd in the menu list and select Run As Administrator. Allow elevation request.
4. Type "netsh winsock reset" (without quotes) in the Command Prompt shell, and press Enter.
Restart the computer.
