[Weather] OWW stuck in a loop

[Jim Duda]

I have a similiar problem as Steve.  I'm running oww-0.81.7 on Fedora FC4.  For some unknown
reason, oww stops reporting information to weatherunderground and CWOP.  The local socket
however, still reports the data.  I haven't been able to figure out why it stops.  If I restart oww,
it sometimes works, but not always.  Then if I reboot the machine, it will usually come back and
start reporting to the internet.
