When trying to add a Web Reference in VB.NET you may find
your system timing out, and you never get to choose the
Service, even though you are able to navigate to it
successfully from the browser window. This is due to a
problem with WinSock calls inside of WSDL.exe (Framework
1.1). This occurs if your system has too many Network
Protocals. I removed some unnecessary protocols and it
resolved my problem.

See this article, this fixed my problem:

Hopefully you wont have to endur four days of hell trying
to figure out why this wouldn't work. Thanks Microsoft!
 
LOL, your link produced this error message.
