wgetter/urlget have no timeouts #46

GEOparse hangs for me quite a lot, particularly on slow connections. I think this is because there are no timeout values set.

Hmm, not sure how to approach this. I will take a look if this is possible for these particular packages. Maybe it is possible to set it globally for the urllib.
