Default Refreshing Web Queries and DisplayAlerts

Im working with a series of macros (Excel 2003) that schedule hourly updates
of a bunch of web queries, and then process each hour's query results. The
scheduling macro calls up the refresh and processing macros.

I have been using Application.DisplayAlerts = False in the beginning of both
the scheduling macro, and the refresh macro. None of the referenced macros
include Application.DisplayAlerts = True. However, when one of the queried
websites cannot be opened, a pop-up box states:

Unable to open http://[web address]. Cannot download information you
requested.

This box stops the macros from continuing until it is clicked by a person.
How can I stop alerts that occur during web query refreshes? Some of the
code Im using follows:

Sub SetSchedule ()
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Sheets(Data).Select
Range(g5:z5).Select
For Each Item in Selection
Application.OnTime Item.Value, Refresh
Application.OnTime Item.Value + TimeValue(00:10:00), Macro3
Application.OnTime Item.Value + TimeValue(00:11:00), Macro4
Next Item
End Sub

Sub Refresh ()
Windows(filename.xls).Activate
Application.StatusBar = Processing Refresh
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Sheets(Data).Select
Range(c3).Select
ActiveCell = Now()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
ActiveWorkbook.RefreshAll
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue(00:02:30), Macro5
End Sub

Sub Macro5 ()
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.StatusBar = Scheduled Updates are Running
End Sub
