I tried same setting and get same message.
So I change proxy setting of browser (I'm using IE6) as
setting SOCKS4 as localhost / 8000 and other entries
as ALL EMPTY. Then I succeeded.

Of course, you should be able to resolve hostname on localhost.
Dynamic forwarding support only SOCKS protocol version 4 (not 4a).
