I am using SSLeay to connect to a cgi script on another server. I have connected to the other server gotten their header information, but then I get what appears to be an encrypted error/response message: 005 ÃÏNÔÅNÔ_ÌÅNGÔH NÏÔ SÅÔ 

use LWP::UserAgent;
use Crypt::SSLeay;
my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
my $req = HTTP::Request->new('POST', 'https://asite.com:443/adir/creat
+e_user.cgi',
    HTTP::Headers->new(
        Content_Type => 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
    Content_Length => 21,
    Content => '<User>John.Doe</User>',
    ));
  my $res = $ua->request($req);
  print $res->content;

It was suggested that I need to strip the parity bit.(???) How can I make the response readable?
Thank you
