For no particular reason that you'd intuit from the 403 message, the 
problem seems to go away when I turn on cookies:

use strict;
use LWP;
my $url="";
my $secs=7200;
$url="http://www.sce.com/esp/Dlf/F2002.dlf";;

my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$browser->cookie_jar({});  # turn on in-memory cookies.
$browser->timeout($secs);
my $response = $browser->get($url);
if ($response->is_success) {
   open(OUTPUT, ">testsceweb" ) or die $!;
   binmode(OUTPUT);
   print OUTPUT $response->content;
   close OUTPUT;
} else {
   die "Can't get $url -- ", $response->status_line;
}
