Title:
  Mail applet messes with other threads (like Weather)

Status in Cairo-Dock: Plug-ins:
  Expired

Bug description:
  This bug is somehow odd but I try to explain it as clearly as
  possible. I use my whole band-width for some download, for example,
  when downloading heavy files with Synaptic. Then I intentionally
  middle click on the weather applet to see what happens. Of course, it
  can't get any information and its icon changes because my whole band-
  width is used by Synaptic or another heavy download process. But,
  after a few seconds, something bad happens: one of my CPU cores goes
  to 100%. I can't quit Cairo-Dock normally but can kill its process and
  then, CPU usage gets normal again.

  When I don't middle click on the weather applet, sometimes the same
  thing happens and sometimes Cairo-Dock crashes and automatically
  restarts.

  In the case of 100% CPU usage, I see no message in xsession-errors
  except normal messages related to the weather and mail applets, which
  say that they cannot retrieve information. In the case of crash and
  restart, I don't clearly remember the messages but I think they said
  that the culprit might be the weather applet.

  I see this problem only after the recent changes in the weather applet
  of the bazaar releases (5th Oct). However, I'm not sure that it's the
  main cause.
