I think you're missing my point.

The fact that you are getting a response back, with a body, means that your client code is working. If you aren't getting the content you expect, that's probably not a problem with your client code. What you need to figure out, is why the server/proxy might be treating your LWP client differently from your Win32::OLE client.

One posibility allready discussed is the GET vs. POST issue. Another is the proxy ... I don't know much about Win32::OLE, but I don't see anything in your second version that makes it look like it's using a proxy. There's also the issue of the User Agent, the server (or the proxy) could be responding differently based on the User Agent header ... or for that matter, any header.
