Apr 24, 2012 5:08 PM in response to osterwby Linc Davis,Is PeerGuardian installed? If so, remove it and try again.
Otherwise, select ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network ▹ Advanced ▹ Proxies. If any proxies are selected, deselect them, apply your changes, and try again. You must apply the changes before they take effect. You don’t need to disable passive FTP mode.

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
- Be sure your Mac is shut down.
- Press the power button.
- Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
- Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Apr 25, 2012 12:07 PM in response to osterwby Linc Davis,Apparently you're on a network where access to HTTP servers is only allowed through a proxy. If the proxy isn't working, you'll have to contact the network administrator.

Jan 5, 2016 3:12 AM in response to Linc Davisby calvarado84,Hi there!!!.
I am having a similar problem, I just can access with my MacBook Air HTTPS sites, if I try to access any HTTP site it does not work.
for instance, if I copy this link in my URL BAR "www.google.com" does not work, but if I copy the complete link https://www.google.com/ it works perfect.
Pd. If I run my Mac in safe mode everything works perfect.
Thanks heaps anyone who can help me.
