Hi,

I had the same issue with horde (just the base) yesterday.It automagically 
disappeared and started working. Do you happen to access the installation via 
http://localhost/horde ?

bklang suggested setting 

$conf['auth']['ipcheck'] = false;

in horde/config.php

Please also take into account this blog post with additional caveats:
