 *     ```
       Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: No such host is known. in D:\Domains\mydomain.com\wwwroot\wp-includes\class-snoopy.php on line 1142
   
       Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to twitter.com:80 (Unknown error) in D:\Domains\mydomain.com\wwwroot\wp-includes\class-snoopy.php on line 1142
       ```
   
 * The plugin seems to be creating the above warning.
    How do I fix the plugin so
   it works correctly?

 * I’ve been getting this error periodically as well. Not sure if I had it fixed
   before a server restart or if it’s just coincidence.
 * I’m able to dig, nslookup, ping, wget..etc on twitter.com:80.
