Sorry… i thought this thread would only appear on the description page of the plugin. Maybe you should include a hint on the “related posts” page that any messages posted under a plugin will also appear in the main support section.
You can now upgrade to version 0.1.95 which solves the problems described above.
Oops, I seem to have missed that call to file_get_contents() when rewriting the tool to be cURL compatible.
What I did (for those people without curl support compiled into their php binary) was exchanging the calls to fopen with a process pointer to the commandline cURL tool. I will try to do this for file_get_contents, too. Is there anyone with fopen_wrappers problems who would like to test the fixed version before it is published?
