I have a script that parses www.imagefap.com. Well, ALMOST parses, anyway! It has a page that pops up asking my bot to say I'm 18 or over to view some of the pictures (all it asks is to follow a link that looks like 
<a href="image.php?id=1117159255&check=6f4e9753bb326bc0a11f76f188160af
+3">I am 18 years of age or older</a>

Calling it directly with LWP::UserAgent doesn't appear to be working, perhaps it's not storing it in my cookie jar this way.

My question is, because I am using proxies to load the pages I'm using LWP::UserAgent. However, to follow the links to say my bot is of age, I need to use WWW::Mechanize.

I'm not sure how to get the two to work together. Can anyone see, from my code below, how I can manage to get it to follow the link with WWW::Mechanize while keeping the cookies and all that I need inside UserAgent? Or can this ALL be done using WWW::Mechanize without directly calling UserAgent? 

      my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
      $ua->proxy('http', "http://$ad:$pt"); # assume this is a working
+ IP with a port number
      $ua->timeout(5);
      my ($one, $two) = split(/::/, $shuffled[$urlcnt]); #one is the U
+RL, two is a custom referer url
      $ua->default_header('Referer' => "$two"); # added my own referer
      my $response = $ua->get($one);

        # my attempt at scraping the page and manually GETting the ver
+ification link
        $response->content =~ m/image\.php\?id=(\d+)\&check=([a-zA-Z0-
+9]+)/;
        print "\t\t- http://imagefap.com/image.php?id=$1&check=$2 link
+\n";
        $ua->get("http://imagefap.com/image.php?id=$1&check=$2");
        $ua->mirror("http://imagefap.com/image.php?id=$1&check=$2", "f
+ap.html") or die "Error: $!";

I have been trying to get this ImageFap bot to work for quite some time now and it's fun trying new tricks to get it to work.. but for now, I am stumped.
