I have exactly the same problem on Vista 32-bit, Chrome (Stable 8.0.552.224), Java 6 u23, GWT 2.1.1.
I get the "unable to connect" dialog. There are no errors in the Eclipse console - nothing at all, in fact, to indicate that anything has connected. The same application on the same machine works fine in Firefox. I can't try IE - I've never been able to get the plugin to run properly on it.
