        I looked at the zap2it web pages that tv_grab_na uses for
scraping and they now say:

        This page has been temporarily disabled.

I believe zap2it has warned people that their web site will change and
the XMLTV authors will not be fixing tv_grab_na.  I think your only
choice now is to sign up for DataDirect and either use tv_grab_na_dd
plus some scripts (see mailing list archives) or upgrade to MythTV CVS
and use the internal grabber (see latest HOWTO).
