That command works for me. (curl v7.27.0 running on an AIX Unix box) so I wonder if there's something outside of curl stopping you.

Can you "ping" curl.haxx.se to see if your system can decode the host name into an IP address?
Have you tried telnet'ing to curl.haxx.se on port 80 to verify that you can connect to the standard HTTP port on curl.haxx.se?
