I found a lot of discussion on this forum regarding whether godaddy ran PHP in safe mode or whether they have URL fopen diabled or not.

Just to save anyone else the stress of figuring out how to resolve this issue:

Godaddy does NOT run PHP in safe mode, but by default they have URL fopen disabled.

To enable URL fopen, download your php.ini file from teh server, and change allow_url_fopen = off to allow_url_fopen = on

This did the trick for me....
