I'm trying to retrieve this URL:

http://ads.bfast.com/clients/etoys/dot_clear.gif

and I get a 404.

Netscape Navigator can pull it up fine, but LWP can't, and
neither can I pull it up with a manual telnet to the host.
I thought that maybe the server is doing some sort of filtering
based on User-Agent, but then I tried to mimic Navigator using
this request:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
GET /clients/etoys/dot_clear.gif HTTP/1.0
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.61 [en] (WinNT; I)
Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, image/png, */*
Accept-Encoding: gzip
Accept-Language: en
Accept-Charset: iso-8859-1,*,utf-8

----------------------------------------------------------------------

and it still doesn't work.  Does anybody have an idea as to
what might be happening here?
