I had a serious headache setting up drupal on wamp with http request fail errors. It took some time to discover the http request fail reset module to bypass this problem and until I had drupal slowed to a crawl.
I've never had any similar trouble installing drupal with a webhost, so presumably the issue lies with wamp. For all it's flaws though, wamp is still the least painful way I've found to run drupal on windows.
