The first thing I would check would be any software firewall running on the machine. Even when you're connecting to localhost, firewalls can block the client and/or the server side.
You don't state what version of Windows you're running. That might be helpful. In 2008 Server, I have seen that "localhost" won't always resolve. I suspect some kind of security clampdown is responsible, but I don't know for sure. By the way, you might try our Anzio product in a similar configuration.
