Keep Getting Zip Code Errors

Weather Widget Won't Take Zip Code

I've been using Object Bar for some time and suddenly I start getting a popup every half hour or so with the label "Zip Error ..." and the message This doesn't appear to be a valid zip code.  Please try again."  I tracked it down to a weather widget that is included by default in the Stardock element, and the input that won't work anymore is the location for the weather widget.  My zip code begins with 0 so I thought that a minor bug might have been introduced, particularly when my location changed to "Livonia, Michigan."  However, I find that the weather widget accepts no zip code that I can contrive.  Now, it gives "Unknown" for the location and the temperatures don't at all agree with Weather.com.

I tried updating Object Bar, and uninstalling it and reinstalling it.  No joy.  Is this something with the server back at Stardock?  Is it a bug in Object Bar?
