Try dropping these use statements:
use LWP::Simple;
use HTTP::Request;
use HTTP::Cookies;
and add:
use LWP;
so your script will look something like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use LWP;
use LWP::UserAgent;
my $URI = 'https://www.domain.com/protected_realm';
my $user = 'foo';
my $pass = 'bar';
# define user agent
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();
$ua->agent("USER/AGENT/IDENTIFICATION");
# make request
my $request = HTTP::Request->new(GET => $URI);
# authenticate
$request->authorization_basic($user, $pass);
# except response
my $response = $ua->request($request);
# get content of response
my $content = $response->content();
# do whatever you need to do with the content here
print $content;
exit;
It would be wise to add error checking in there as well. :)
Also, check out the docs for LWP here:

And the LWP::UserAgent docs for your cookie related needs:

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
