Access Denied Trying Callout

Hi,
 
I am using a Developer Edition Salesforce.Com environment and I am writing Apex code to call RESTful Web Services that my company’s product provides.  I have added the URL to the “Remote Site Settings” using a hostname and when I ran the Visualforce Page, I got an error that the DNS failed.  I then changed the “Remote Site Settings” to use the IP address, and now I get “Access Denied”, and “Access control configuration prevents your request from being allowed at this time. Please contact your service provider if you feel this is incorrect”.
 
This is the entire response:
