succeeeded in calling webpage which is at the localhost but when i
tried to access any other website say http://www.google.com it gave an

Are you behind a proxy? If so you have to set the java properties..

System.getProperties().setProperty("http.proxyHost", "your proxy
host");
System.getProperties().setProperty("http.proxyPort", "your proxy
port");

Don't forget to "set" the proxy to true!
