Problem with multiple programs unable to connect.

[generic.imitation]

I'm currently using an unrooted droid with sweeterhome 2. I've updated all my apps, and now i think something is blocking some apps. I use newsroom RSS reader, and it won't update the rss feeds anymore, as well as sweeterhome 2 theme downloader wont download. I talked to several other people who have newsroom and it is working fine. Has anyone heard of programs blocking other programs on accident in android? any insight into this matter is greatly appreciated. I'll give info on installed apps if needed.
