Yay found the issue ...it was proxy related although I do not have a proxy configured. I unticked the "autodetect proxy settings for this network" in FF and forced it to no proxy and magic it worked.
Although I am puzzled why my FF settings did override the IE settings in this case.
And why does it still use browser settings although I enabled direct connect in Java?
