Does anybody know of a web server or something that can be called with a ZIP code parameter which will return the current temperature? Maybe a telnet site? Anything?

I've been working with that web site all morning to figure out how to use it to my advantage. I came up with the simple project attached.
It grabs the current date/time using Telnet and the current temperature using www.weather.com.
The embedded web browser interface is touchy at times and I can't figure out how to stop those annoying pop-up ads. :rolleyes:
To compile the project you will need to include the Microsoft Internet Controls and Winsock Control 6.0 components.
I welcome any ideas/suggestions/solutions/extra cash. :D
:p
And here's the project (I hate it when that happens).
Thanks everyone!
