I type the above code on my Eclipse IDE, and it runs well. I think one problem that you may encounter is with your proxy server.

The response was:

Server: Sun-Java-System-Web-Server/7.0

What I changed from your code was only this snippet:

System.setProperty("java.net.useSystemProxies", "false");

Just my guess:

• your network there actually doesn't use proxy but you turned it on, or
• your proxy doesn't support HTTPS or
• your proxy HTTPS support for your user is disabled (either intentionally or unintentionally).
