 * I actually just ran into this exact same problem and was surprised to see that
   you had it this recently.
 * I figured it out. The problem is that PHP by default has disabled allow_url_fopen
   for security reasons. However, you can re-enable it at your own risks. I do not
   personally know what the security risks are, but I am sure there are tons of 
   google posts on why it is disabled.
 * This option can be set back to “on” 1 of 2 different ways. Either by acessing
   your php.ini file and turning it on there…
 * or if you don’t have that (if you buy from a host)…
 * you’ll need to edit your .htaccess file in the root area of your website and 
   add to the end of the file: php_value allow_url_fopen on
 * Then it should allow that function to work properly again.
