Wget connection reset by peer

I am trying to access www.indeed.com from our web server using wget, but it causes a "Connection reset by peer" error.

wget www.indeed.com

--2013-02-05 03:03:12--  (try: 3)  http://www.indeed.com/
Connecting to www.indeed.com|208.43.224.140|:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... Read error (Connection reset by peer) in headers.
Retrying.

It worked before I use their API for a while, but now I have not even reached their public website.

What could this be a problem? Could I really add a server IP address to my blacklist or is it related to my firewall, etc.?

Is there any way to debug / trace where the problem is?

You should use with the user-agent, for example, the following sample

wget "http://www.indeed.com/" --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6"
