I found this bugreport upstream, but the binaries of the current source work flawlessy under windows seven. Therefor I think this is due to mono in lucid lynx.

As former active TheLastRipper developer... I can confirm this bug... I've been getting mail from Windows users with the same problem... So it's probably not a .Net/mono issue.

My guess is that last.fm did some redirects which TheLastRipper doesn't handle nicely... Anyway, I'll look into this as soon as I can find the time.

Hi!

The problem seem to be two //-signs within the link-response from lastfm, which causes problems for mono.

see http://code.google.com/p/thelastripper/issues/detail?id=211 for details. So this probably isn't a thelastripper problem, but a mono-problem. I was able to "fix" it with the method described patching mono-2.6.4, but a workaround within thelastripper would be nicer.

As Hanky says this appears to be a mono related bug, the appropriate mono bugreport is:
