You didn't say what method you are using to retrieve the file so far.

Had you used LWP::Simple, you would get exactly the content you require like this:

use LWP::Simple;
my $val=get "http://some/url/somewhere";
open(OUT,">some_file_name") || die "Could not save to some_file_name" 
+$!\n";
binmode(OUT); # you only really need this sometimes. BStS.
print OUT $val;
close(OUT);

If you need more complex queries you might need to use LWP::UserAgent, and you will find the exact value you require (i.e. content without the headers) in the content method of HTTP::Result object you will get back.
