popular curl library.

Yes. Google points you (almost) directly to it when you ask for "how to
retrieve a web resource with Perl".

Vcs-Fields (letter after '-' should be upper case.  There is also

  Description : Simpler interface to WWW::Curl
 Curl and its cognate C library are a prominent solution
 to download content from the Web. WWW::Curl
 is very close to the original C API, and while
 WWW::Curl::Easy makes it easier, indeed, it is only
 with and WWW::Curl::Simple that you want to use
 the library for a quick'n'simple single-liner
 to retrieve a remote page.
