Hi There,

got this Problem when trying to search for Address

( o ) To use this query in the future, type:
( o ) geotoad.rb --format=gpx --output='/Users/username/Desktop/' '66123 
Saarbrücken'

( - ) Your cache directory is /Users/username/Library/Caches/GeoToad

( o ) Performing location search for 66123 Saarbrücken (constraining to 0.0 
miles)
( o ) Google Maps found "66123 Saarbrücken". Accuracy level: Post code
( - ) 
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx?lat=49.2489232&lng=7.0175590&dist=0.
0
( o ) No geocaches were found.
ERROR: No caches found in search, exiting early

When searching by Username, everything works fine.

This might be the problem. Try it with coordinates (N 49°15' E 7°02') and a x 
mi radius around them. 
Tried it with my hometown and a 5 mi radius, found and got the caches. Also 
latest state of geotoad.

Indeed, setting the maximum search radius (--distanceMax / -y option) works 
around this issue.
Tes modified in SVN revision 899 should fix this issue, please test.
