Hi, I have the following code which I'm using for monitoring URLs: 
# !C:\Perl\bin

use strict;
use warnings;
use LWP::UserAgent;

#my $wsr = LWP::UserAgent -> new;
#$wsr -> timeout( 20 );

my $url       = shift or die "URL expected\n";
my $useragent = LWP::UserAgent->new;

$useragent->proxy(['http', 'ftp','https'], 'http://192.168.5.5:8080/')
+;
$useragent -> timeout( 20 );

my $request   = HTTP::Request->new( HEAD => $url );
my $response  = $useragent->request($request);

print $response->status_line, "\n";

[download]

It works fine for most URLs, http or https. However for some URLs, which function fine from the explorer, I get errors as follows:

https://elmag.elm.com.sa

500 Internal Server Error

https://www.etv.com.sa

500 Internal Server Error

Other https addresses work fine, for example

https://eserve.com.sa

200 OK

Looking forward to your support and assistance.
