title: WCF service only accessible when Fiddler is turned on
body: <p>My client application which is on one machine is trying to access a WCF service which is on another machine. </p>
  
  <p>The client application can only access the web service when Fiddler,on the client machine, is switched on. When the latter is switched off, I get the following error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>System.ServiceModel.EndpointNotFoundException: There was no endpoint
    listening at <a href="http://ourServer.com/ProductDataServiceV1.svc" rel="nofollow">http://ourServer.com/ProductDataServiceV1.svc</a> that could
    accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or
    SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details. --->
    System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server --->
    System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No connection could be made
    because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:8888</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>In the hosts file I've got </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>192.168.33.55   ourServer.com</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I've looked at the proxy settings in Windows explorer and all the checkboxes are turned off. I've also done a search for "127.0.0.1:8888" on the client machine but couldn't find anything of note. </p>
  
  <p>Moreover, I am able to "see" the service <a href="http://ourServer.com/ProductDataServiceV1.svc" rel="nofollow">http://ourServer.com/ProductDataServiceV1.svc</a> in a web browser.</p>
  
  <p>What am I doing wrong?</p>
