I have now solved it.  I got the debugging info to turn on, which
showed me that openurl was choking on a host called 'localhost'  I
recognised that name as being related to a proxie that I run to 
remove
ads when I am browsing on the net.  I wandered arround in the urllib
and httplib modules a bit, and finally found that if I used the
URLopener classes, I could tell them to not use any proxies, and then
it worked.
 Thank you, Remco, for your help,

  Thank you for your time,
