Odd way to go about it adding so many sockets that is.. You should have just used one socket to check for the news you are looking for on that one site. It wouldn't be hard to do...

What I mean is you can find away to make it do it in one socket instead of making 9 sockets.. Here is just one way keep in mind I haven't coded in msl in some time...
