PHP 4.3.0-1 has a bug that made your previous code "work",
have a look at the fread() docs for why, here's a quote:
"Note: When reading from network streams or pipes, such
as those returned when reading remote files or from
popen() and proc_open(), reading will stop after a packet
is available. This means that you should collect the data
together in chunks as shown in the example below."
It goes on to show that you must loop threw it to get
fread() to do what you want in the below code. Although,
the example it eludes to is wrong (a correct example will
show when the manual next builds), you get the point... :)

Philip
