Using Drupal 6.13

Hi!

Here's a copy of an error I'm getting after following the gcal_events instructions to the letter:

* GCal Events [Block 0] cURL error 28: Operation timed out after 10000 milliseconds with 0 bytes received
* warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /****/gcal_events.module on line 808.

I've tried increasing the timeout value within the module itself, but it returns the same message after 20 sec instead of 10.
I'm using the holiday events calendar to test, and in debug mode the feed url is accessible with the correct amount of entries.

Here's the debug output:

* GCal Events: PHP Memory Limit: 32M
* GCal Events: PHP Initial Memory Usage: 3.8MB
* GCal Events: PHP Initial Memory Usage (real): 4MB
* GCal Events: Timezone: US/Eastern
* GCal Events: Simplepie version 1.2
* GCal Events[Block 0]: Num Events: 5
* GCal Events: Cache is set to sites/*****/cache
* GCal Events: Cache duration is 3600 seconds
* GCal Events[Block 0]: FeedURL
* GCal Events[Block 0]: Feed Init took 10.14 seconds

I've read the doc page thoroughly, and searched for a similar errors but haven't come up with anything yet.

What can I do to diagnose this problem? Any thoughts on what this might be?

Thanks!
