I know you have said you won't be changing the mod to not use allow_url_fopen, but if you know what I need to change myself I would very much appreciate it.
Thanks again for such a great mod.

You would have to use the non-armory version. The xml parser that's used for the addon requires you to have allow_url_fopen set to ON. While I understand your host's statement, personally I would use a host that gives you the ability to modify and manage your own php environment. There are a lot of good hosts out there that allow you to do that - IPOWER is one for instance. The type of host I would look for that's cheap and affordable is one that supports a "virtual dedicated" hosting platform. This way you don't need a purely dedicated hosting plan but you can self-manage everything on a virtual dedicated type of plan, including the ability to SSH to your site and manipulate/add library components.
