Depricated code on lines 8, 9, and 10, but its only a warning on line 8

Question

Line 8 gets a warning but lines 9 and 10 cause errors. Anyone see a quick fix?
Thanks
Here is the code:
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
public class TimeWaster {
public static void main(String[] args)
String url = URLEncoder.encode(args[0]);
String description = URLEncode.encode(args[1]);
String type = URLEncode.encode(args[2]);
URL site = new URL("http://timewaster.net/");
URLConnection connection = site.openConnection();
connection.setDoOutput(true);
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(
connection.getOutputStream());
out.println("url=" + url + "&description=" + description + "&type=" + type);
out.close();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(
connection.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null)
System.out.println(inputLine);
in.close();
}

Laszlo, wouldnt that only catch a malformed url. not
make it un-malformed? lolyes, but the compiler doesn't know, at compiltime, whether the url you typed is valid or not. so it's forcing you to handle the case where it is not valid.
i personally don't think these checked exceptions are a good idea, but, it's something you have to live with in java.
