Hi,

Try this way below (got from perldoc lwpcook),it can work for me.

        use strict;
        use LWP::UserAgent;

        my $uri = 'http://www.google.com/search?q=silicon+valley&start=20';

         my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
         $ua->agent("Mozilla/8.0"); # pretend we are very capable browser

         my $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => $uri);
         $req->header('Accept' => 'text/html');

         # send request
         my $res = $ua->request($req);

         # check the outcome
         if ($res->is_success) {
            print $res->content;
         }
         else {
            print "Error: " . $res->status_line . "\n";
         }
