Turn off compression, this worked fine for me from from anonymous apex.
String content = '{"NumerVidskiptamanns": "500269677900", "Heiti":"Test"}';
HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest();
Http http = new Http();
req.SetEndpoint('http://212.30.237.35:8080/VerkbokhaldRestService.svc/StofnaVerk');
req.SetBody(content);
req.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json; charset=utf-8');
req.setMethod('POST');
HttpResponse res = http.send(req);
System.debug(res.toString());
The debug log shows
10:41:35:829 USER_DEBUG [9]|DEBUG|System.HttpResponse[Status=OK, StatusCode=200]
