    Thanks for your feedback. That helps but I still do not get the file. I instead get the following error stack,

    LWP::UserAgent::_need_proxy: Not proxied
    LWP::Protocol::http::request: ()
    LWP::Protocol::collect: read 816 bytes
    LWP::Protocol::collect: read 840 bytes
    LWP::UserAgent::request: Simple response: Unauthorized

    Cheers!
