I live in Camarillo, CA.  I just installed the applet and tried to configure
it.  It came up with Newbury Park and only Newbury Park. Trying to search on
either Camarillo, CA or my zip code fails. How can I find out for myself what
the correct info is for the closest weather station (I assume that it's not
Newbury Park because Forcastfox has no trouble getting it right.) and plug it in?

Maybe just add _your exact_ information in regards to location and zip code to
the file that contains the weather-app's configuration? This way you'll be given
a choice when you try to change it, or at the very least....it should FIND
it!... And mind you I'm just guessing here!.

The issue is twofold:

1 - the initial location is taken from your IP, before you have 1st login.
2 - the search function is broken thereafter.

Note: search worked at the time fc17 came out, that's where I got the correct address. Relatively new problem.
