I'm starting to think this is something else. I've noticed that the first few searches I do against the site always work, and then at some point it starts timing out on every call. If I close my process and restart, then I get a few more good searches before it starting timing out again. At any point during this, searches that I do through my browser appear to work fine.
I'm now of the opinion that this is either a ScraperXML bug or a Windows networking bug. I'll do some more investigation and see if I can find anything interesting.
