Bug in weather plugin?

Okay,

It is partially working.

I have tinyproxy installed when I am at work, I use an upstream proxy
setting of my work's proxy. At home, I turn off the upstream proxy.
This way all my application use "localhost:8888" as their proxy
regardless of if I am at home or at work.

This is working for all my applications except for the weather
plug-in. If I specify my work proxy on the plug-in it works fine.

Any ideas on why it would be failing with using this intermediary
proxy on localhost port 8888?
