I hope that's a typo--version 7.2.1 dates from before the dawn of Man.

Nothing I can think of (unless you're using a 10 year old libcurl, of course). A debugger should be able to give you more information about exactly what's going wrong there. >>> Dan ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
