Sorry about the title Pasha, no offence meant. Please change it if you want to.

The thing is that after upgrading to build 225, the app. wouldn't startup.
I changed to build 222 (last stable version): same problem.
On one occasion it did start, after about 18 minutes (!) or so, I stopped counting.

Tried several times switching back and forth between builds 222 and 225, restarting computer every now and then, but to no avail.
Then suddenly I remembered one of Reinhart's mails about a big weatherCache.xml file.
Guess what: Mine was about 68 MB. (My guess is that it gets this big somewhere during the installation!)
I deleted it, started all over again and everything is back to normal again.
Build 225 is running at the moment and the weatherCache.xml file is 16kB now.
I would like to thank Reinhart for his mail and solution!

Yes, weatherCache.xml is the cause.
I have added a fix to prevent weatherCache.xml from growing somewhere around 220 build.
I hope nobody will face this problem anymore.
