All PHP Weather does is to access files via HTTP. This normally uses
port 80. But if you're using a proxyserver, then you have to connect
to that on some other port - Squid uses 3128 but I've seen others use
8080.

If you're able to browse the net without using a proxy, then PHP
Weather should also be able to function without any special settings.
