nice widget. one request... konfabulator starts up before my machine finds its internet connection, so the widget can't get data, so it thinks i put in a bad zip code. any chance the widget could be made to hold up on checking for prices until it detects an internet connection, or have a spot on the widget clickable to force an update? thanks.

not very accurate in my area...

Dan, a new version will be out soon that is proxy aware.

Is there anyway to make this PROXY aware? Behind our corp firewall I can not get this to work.

Rack,
Haxx cURL is the Konfabulator program that some widgets use to access the internet. In this case, this is used to go around MSN's denying Mac users. It is perfectly safe and a normal function of Konfabulator widgets. You can read more about cURL here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CURL

As a note, all widgets are virus scanned and checked for malicious code before being added to the gallery here. So, for the most part, you can trust the widgets in this gallery.
