urllib hangs

[Jay Donnell]

Performance isn't an issue with this script. It runs in the background
from a cron  job. It just needs to finish before the day is over which
it easily does :)
It currently runs through ~20,000 urls which it does in about 3 hours.
It should be faster now that it times out.

If I had used threads at first I probably wouldn't have noticed that
it wasn't timing out on a few urls.
