Unable to connect

I have followed the guidelines for WebUI ... enabled plugin and chose a password.
When I type http://localhost:8112/ in Firefox (Ubuntu) I get:

Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost:8112.

What's wrong :(

have you made sure that port 8112 is open?

are you behind a router?

Yes ... my computer is on a LAN with a firewall.
I have made a port forwarding in the firewall to port 8112 on my computer but still I get 'unable to connect ...' :|
Any ideas ?

use http://localhost when deluge is running on the same computer.
use http://ip-number-of-deluge-pc when on a lan, or when directly connected to the internet.
use http://remote-ip-number-of-router when outside of the lan using port-forwarding.

Does http://localhost:8112 work on the pc that is running deluge?
