Looks like I'm running with LWP Version 5.44.
I looked through the LWP Code Log list at the http://www.linpro.no/lwp/
site and
didn't see anything related to getstore but I'm not sure if it would be
listed under that anyway.
My hosting company just declined my request to upgrade the LWP package.
I'm pretty sure I don't have the option of installing my own modules.
I hacked a script using LWP::UserAgent as opposed to LWP::Simple but it
looks like they probably
use the same underlying code as it gave me the same results of hanging
and partial images.
I also tried to issue a traceroute, tracert, etc., from a telnet
session, but this may be fenced off (as are a few other cmds) since
it didn't recognize the cmd.
Does anyone know of another "package" I could run locally (not as an
installed Perl module) that uses something other tham LWP code
to retrieve a remote image file to see if I get the same results?
Thanks for all the help so far.
