 * I’m happy to modify the script for a slightly longer timeout or alternatively
   add a filter so you can change this value (if you can do rudimentary code). Would
   that work for you?

 * Okay I’ll double the timeout to 20 and also allow it to be filtered.
 * But I won’t have svn access until next week so just be patient.

 * Okay I have increased the timoe out to 20 seconds and added a filter called lh_copy_from_url_class_remote_get_args
   which you can view in line 209 of lh-copy-from-url-class.php where you could 
   increase it further by a filter via code. Let me know if this fixes your issues(
   it should).

 * I am resolving this for good order but will still monitor the thread and reopen
   if neccesary
