    I assume your workstation is not the server?

    If your workstation is the server and you connect via http://localhost
    (which resolves to 127.0.0.1) then unless you allow this you will be denied.

    Have you checked the IIS log files as it will display the IP Address that it
    is denying requests to.

    I could not reproduce your problem here on IIS 6
