There does not seem to be a totally satisfactory solution to this, in 
that it would seem that if Mathematica thinks there is an internet 
connection, it will try to refresh the data, and generate errors if the 
connection is weak or drops part way through the update. This can be 
particularly troublesome while giving a presentation!

I solved this by loading all the data I required, and storing it 
separately using Save.
