Chrome won't open localhost

Question

I have a web server running in my computer and both Firefox and Internet Explorer will open

http://localhost:8080/login.html

without any problems but Chrome displays:

This webpage is not available

Why might this be?

Everything else is fine with Chrome, actually I am accessing stackoverflow using Chrome. only localhost...

incognito window behaves the same.

Try with 127.0.0.1:8080/login.html
