reCaptcha validation with timeout exception

I am using reCaptch in my MVC 3 web app running in the localhost.

Things were working fine few weeks back but suddenly failing.

Suddenly getting this error.

if(!ReCaptcha.Validate(_config.RecaptchaPrivateKey)){ <-- times out here
  //process other fields in the form
}

As soon as I fill the form and hot submit I get this error :

The operation has timed out

Description : An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current ...

Exception Details : System.Net.WebException: The operation has timed out

Is this a proxy issue? Is this because my site on localhost runs on port 3316?

localhost:3316/user/signup

I saw some posts that suggests that reCAPTCHA expects port 80 but my app runs on port 3316

What can be the issue?

Thanks

I got around this by creating proxy class that inherits IWebProxy.

Then specifying to use this proxy when internal, I had to transform it out for other environments that didn't need to use it.

See this question and accepted answer:

Is it possible to specify proxy credentials in your web.config?

The above link took some finding, so I favourited it for future use.
