@paul_henman yes that's probably it!

@paul_henman GeekTool.app is just for configuration. It's not supposed to run all the time, but checking the box runs Helper app

@paul_henman probably something is preventing GeekTool to start on boot. Can you check in your Login Items in accounts preferences?

@PjBx01 if that times out it probably means sometimes the web site doesn't reply

@PjBx01 what do you use now?

@nullriver @iAdam1n @A1p1n3 I meant geektool version :-)

@xFranGracex v3.3.1 is current, just so that you know. If you're happy with the current version don't bother!

@dwfaust Fixed, thank for the help!

@dwfaust ok can you expand that warning, it should some meaningful message

@PjBx01 you can change timeout to something bigger than a typical run time. Shell geeklet aren't meant for infinite commands.

@mattfield yes I'm not surprised. The plugin will stay optional then

@xFranGracex you're out of date :-p

@dwfaust I think Firefox will be updated with the correct certificate with the next release. Or you are using an old Firefox?
