I had this function in global.asax:

AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();

Try adding this code to your web site before calling OpenIdRelyingParty.CreateRequest:

ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Ssl3;

In some Azure configurations this has been shown to resolve the issue. Please let us know if this resolves your issue as well.
