If I try to activate the "download lyrics" functionality I get the message stated in the title of this bug report.


From https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/banshee-community-extensions/+bug/861155/comments/3 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/banshee-community-extensions/+bug/861155/comments/4, it looks like the issue was that a bad proxy was used.
Comment 1 Bertrand Lorentz 2011-11-28 18:04:25 UTC 
The Lyrics extension was doing its own HTTP proxy management, for no reason
what so ever. And apparently it was not doing it right.

I just remove that code, so it now uses the proxy as set by Banshee itself (it
sets HttpWebRequest.DefaultWebProxy), which has more chances to be right.
