Don't know where to tell you  to start looking for the error but it works here 
once I specify the server to search on. Perhaps you have something blocking 
the 11371 port for sending/receiving to/from the hkp server.

$ gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --search-keys baloo@ursine.ca
gpg: searching for "baloo@ursine.ca" from hkp server pgp.mit.edu
