before I write  ticket up I figured out my particular problem.  I have a
local DNS domain and my wireless router handles the lookup for it. On my
Backend system I had

search porter.com
nameserver 192.168.1.1

mythfilldatabase would do a dns query for
webservices.schedulesdirect.tmsdatadirect.com.porter.com first and then
eventually get around to webservices.schedulesdirect.tmsdatadirect.com. By
then it was too late and the timing was all messed up. If I take out the
search domain it works fine. It is possible I have a configuration problem,
but the setup has not change and was working on my 0.24 setup.I suspect
timing with the download manager is more touchy than with wget of 0.24.
