I would say you could reject it by its header type of browser. But the cURL
can spoof browsers with a simple command line attribute. Making it appear
simply as IE or Netscape.



Some particularly anti-social web sites will only serve content to a
specific brand of browser. Get around this with a "User-Agent:" header: 


  bash$ wget --header="User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0;
Windows NT; DigExt)" http://msie.only.url/here

Subject: Block cURL?


Has anybody used cURL and is there a way to block someone from using it on 
your server?
