Still no response on this one, but I did find a 'rather ugly' solution
using subprocess for wget to get a file from sharepoint...

import shlex
from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
# build sharepoint user/pw
# note: shlex.split requires both a raw and escaped domain string
user = r'DOMAIN\\ID'
pw = getpass.getpass('password: ')
url = 'http://myserver.com/myfile.txt'

Ah.
Well that explains why your version using urllib2 failed -- you don't give a
username or password, and sharepoint (whatever that is!) requires one.
You might have said.
You can read the Fine Manual, which describes how to fetch Internet resources:
http://docs.python.org/howto/urllib2.html
That is written for Python 2.7, here's one for 2.4:

Since you need to authenticate, this will probably be helpful:
