I'm attemping to use LWP from my ISP that uses CPanel 5.0 and virtual
hosting.
When I try to use any LWP functions they all fail with the error:
500 Can't connect to www.somewhere.com:80 (Bad protocol 'tcp')
I can use my simple test script from other hosted domains using CPanel 5.0
What does this mean? What is wrong with my ISPs server? He says he doesn't
have a clue.
