Error getting News

I'm constantly getting the "[E12] Error gettings news" message from PyLotRO and can't even remember ever having had success with loading the news from Turbine.

Other than that, LotRO works flawlessly!

So I was wondering if this is a common and known problem and if there's a way to fix it?

Specs:
Mac OS 10.7.2
MacBook Pro early 2011
2 GHz Intel Ci7
8 GB RAM
LotRO installed using CrossTie in a Win XP bottle
CrossOver Games 10.1.2
PyLotRO version 0.1.14
No "Tips & Tricks" applied

Thanks 😊

Edit:
After writing this I noticed that there is a newer version of PyLotRO being mentioned on the forums. So I reinstalled PyLotRO into my bottle using "Install Software" option in CrossOver Games and selecting PyLotRO. However this ended up with reinstalling the old 0.1.14 version. I then went to the PyLotRO website and downloaded the newest installer prober. Installing that into my bottle resulted in the correct version 0.1.15.
Since that, my News are now being displayed as expected 😊
