It's generally inappropriate to have a GUI program do network 
communications in the main GUI thread.  You should create a worker 
thread and communicate with it using Queues and possibly the 
AddPendingEvent() or PostEvent() methods in wx.  There should be many 
easily accessible examples of how to do such things.  Post again if you 
need help finding them.
