Hi,

I am using Python's urllib2 with Tor as a proxy to access a website. When I open the site's main page it works fine but when I try to view the login page (not actually log-in but just view it) I get the following error...

URLError:

To counteract this I did the following:

import socket
socket.setdefaulttimeout(None)

I still get the same timeout error. 1. Does this mean the website is timing out on the server side? (I don't know much about http processes so sorry if this is a dumb question) 2. Is there any way I can correct it so that Python is able to view the page?\

Thanks, Rob
