Problems Fetching from HTTP?

Hello Everyone,

I recently seem to have developed problems fetching from
http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git.  The error is simply:

    error: Failed connect to www.kernel.org:80; Connection refused
while accessing http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/info/refs

    fatal: HTTP request failed

I looked around and discovered that perhaps the URL had changed via
[git.kernel.org][] so I went ahead and changed the URL and still get
the error.

    error: Failed connect to git.kernel.org:80; Connection refused
while accessing http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/info/refs

    fatal: HTTP request failed

What could be going on here?  I can't pull from `git://` as I'm behind
a firewall.

Thanks in advance!
