# WordPress Accessing Web?

 * Hi, I have WordPress (latest version) up and running but it can’t seem to access
   the internet when I try to import blogger content as well as when I try to use
   the Ajax spellchecker (where it says permission denied). I’m using Aplus.net 
   as a host and had to enable curl in order for the blogger import to try and work.
   Any thoughts or ideas will be appreciated! Thanks!

 * Currently it seems Blogger.Com is having it’s own problems, and therefore WordPress
   is not able to import from blogger. As for the Ajax Spellchecker, can I see a
   specific error if there is one?

 * Basically it says failed to connect to (ip address). Permission Denied… I’m also
   not able to automatically pull in posts that I submit to the wordpress email 
   account I set up. It seems that my installation isn’t able to communicate with
   other sites, etc. via the web…

 * I’m still having the issue I described above. I have enabled cURL, but I still
   can’t “pull” content into my blog in that I can’t grab album art from Amazon 
   using iTunes Spy, or pull in a video from YouTube using Video Blogger. All other
   aspects of the plugins are working as they should… Any thoughts would be GREATLY
   appreciated!
