ntlmap has unhandled exceptions resulting in bad performance

[Maarten Bezemer]

Binary package hint: ntlmaps

When using ntlmaps multiple occurrences of this unhandled exception are printed the the console:

Unhandled exception in thread started by
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/ntlmaps/lib/proxy_client.py", line 152, in run

I need to refresh the webpage (with NTLM authentication) multiple times before it finally downloads/shows the content.
For a next page (eg when following a link) the same problems happen, and so on.

With Maverick (I do not know the used version anymore), I never had this problem with ntlmaps. So upgrading seems to have introduced this problem.
