SocketException: Connection reset , using HttpURLConnection

hello everybody, i'm using this to read a xml from internet:

URL url;

HttpURLConnection urlcon;

url =new URL (urlString);

System.out.print("Connecting ....\t");

urlcon = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();

if(!urlcon.getResponseMessage().equals("OK"))

return -1;

System.out.println("Done!");

it gives me:

java.net.SocketException: Connection reset

Any ideas why this happens?

PS: when i try the same URL in a browser, it opens the file fine .....
