When using urllib.URLopener(proxy) (instead of setting _PROXY env variables and

calling urllib.openurl(),
you get the following error message:

 File "./watchdog.py", line 118, in main
    url.open(urltocheck)
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/urllib.py", line 158, in open
    return getattr(self, name)(url)
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/urllib.py", line 258, in open_http
    return addinfourl(fp, headers, "http:" + url)
TypeError: illegal argument type for built-in operation 

When using explicti proxies, url is a tuple instead of a string.  You can't 
concatanate a tuple to a string, so the operation fails.
