If that's the case, the only other thing I can think of is `$ua->no_proxy();` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

That doesn't help either if the OP is behind a firewall and needs to use a proxy.	[reply]

it worked for me doing this: `use WWW::Mechanize; my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new(); $mech->get ('http://google.com'); my $content = $mech->content; print $content;` [download] I don't think it is necessary to put the 'or die "Can't create mech" part? Also,I have a brief tutorial that I have requested for comment using WWW::Mechanize that is in the meditations section	[reply] [d/l]

That doesn't fix anything if a proxy is involved. See the LWP::UserAgent proxy() and env_proxy() methods.	[reply]
