Comment 22 for bug 676370

Maybe it helps: if you add an argument for a user agent string on wget instead of using curl like:

$ wget --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:6.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/6.0" http://static.die.net/earth/mercator/1600.jpg

I can download the sunlight image no problem, if however I use:

$ wget http://static.die.net/earth/mercator/1600.jpg

 it is blocked.

I looked at your coed and currently you use curl, maybe it would be easy to change the code to use wgen with the firefox user agent flag above?

Best, Sean.
